Can Peptic Ulcer Cause Abdominal Pain?
Went to ER with abdominal pain. They did blood work and xrays. They said I needed to see a doctor and have a colonoscopy done. However, I believe my pain is from stomach ulcer. I had bleeding ulcers long ago. Today the pain was severe. I took Maalox and it immediately soothed the pain. I woke up and now I am feeling dizzy and worry that they may be bleeding. After 2 ER viaits in 11 days I am reluctant to return.

Take care
