Could Stomach Bloating With Urination Urgency Be Due To A Ulcer?
I had a 12mm ulcer in my stomach which was caused by anti-inflammatory medication taken over many years. I was taken off Mobic for several months. During this period I took Somac 40mg twice a day. After 2 months ulcer had gone. I was put back on Mobic and Somac (1 per day 40mg). Suffer from chronic arthritis. Over the past week I have needed to urinate constantly. My stomach feels bloated. Is the ulcer back?

Hello
These are not the usual symptoms from a stomach ulcer and they probably are not related to each other
The urination could be from diabetes, a urinary tract infection, or, if you're a male, an enlarged prostate gland.
As for the stomach bloating, that could be from an H pylori stomach infection.
To see what's going on you need a urinalysis and an H pylori screening from your doctor
