Dear XXXX
I assume you referred to Methamphetamine when you said Meth.
Methamphetamine is a sympathomimetic drug. It is known to cause gastritis as side effect of the drug. This could explain the pain in abdomen.
Taking acid suppressing agent like proton pump inhibitor ( Pantoprozole) which could be available over the counter will provide the much needed relief. Also Would suggest you to take Liquid antacid along with it.
Do get back to me if you need any further assistance, will be glad to assist you.

Unfortunatley a devil friend of mine told me that there is this pill thats called "Rosche". It will calm me down and eventually let me sleep. I looked it over the internet and all i understood thats its gonna put me to sleep, so i took half of it . Ahh ! Im never gonna touch this drug again, i feel so bad.. Anyway thank you doctor for your time and for sure will get back to you. Wish you all the best
