Hi,I am Dr. Radhakrishna (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am a 26 year old female, 5'2 150lbs. Just today I had to leave work because of a bad stomach ache. Not like BM stomach ache, a sharp then dulling pain around my upper stomach. I also have been experiencing hot flashes,nausea, and dizziness. I had spotting during the month of April and missed my period in May but that is normal. Not sure what to do. Should I go see a doctor or take something from wal-mart
There are two different part of your question. One acute abdominal pain may be because of acid peptic disorder. You can take antacids immediately with antispasmodic. Later on you can switch to pantoprazol empty stomach twice daily to avoid recurrence. Avoid hunger;constipation and spicy food for time being. The second part may or may not be related to hunger pain. It may be pre menstrual syndrome. You also get your heamogram done to rule out deficiencies if any for dizziness and irregular periods are common in anaemics . Must see a doctor if not relieved
