What Causes Fluttering In Upper Stomach Along With Lightheadedness?
I have been having terrible stomach fluttering in my upper stomach. it gets so strong I feel a little light headed with it at times. I have a history of a lot of stomach issues. I have had erosions in my stomach before. I take nexium but does seem to be helping right now.
hi, I am not sure of the exact cause that might be affecting you right now but it points out out that you might be having issues related to your acidity .I would like to ask you whether you smoke ,take alcohol or any other substances that you abuse which tend to cause the lower oesophageal sphincter to relax and cause gastrooesophaeal reflux disease .Other issue that might be affecting is some small tumour that sometimes cause excessive acidity and erosions of the stomach .I would like to suggest you to consult a gastroenteroogist who can find out the exact cause by taking a good history and evaluating you by ordering specific investigations if required. I would suggest you to cut down smoking,alcohol and any other substance abuse thats likely causing your acidity .I hope you find this information useful.
