Feels like it is subsiding some .don't feel the burning and cramping. So much.. xmas day I was Taking 600mg of ibuprofen every 6hrs. For 3 days straight. Wonder if this is the cause.

Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain stomach pain after eating can be due to causes like stomach flu, food poisoning, lactose intolerance, stomach ulcers,irritable bowel syndrome, eating too rapidly or over eating etc..
In case if the symptoms does not subside or recurs you should consult a Gastroenterologist and get evaluated and he can do a clinical examination, and advise you investigations like blood tests, stool culture, Colonoscopy etc to rule out the exact cause of the problem and treat you accordingly.
You can be advised to take antibiotics, anti-inflammatory, Proton pump inhibitor like Omeprazole, antacids, probiotics like Youghurt and Lactobacillus Acidophillus, anti spasmodics and a light diet..
Drink plenty of water and avoid spicy and large meals..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
