Pills For Belly Pain

Why are Dr's giving this out like CANDY and it doesn't help it just makes the matter act up MORE. I don't see why they give this for everyone? They don't test us for having IBS they just say I think you have it maybe and like they told me after I used it for over two weeks and nothing but Pain in the Belly and sharp pain and all the bloating, keep taking it as it some times takes up to six weeks before it starts working. Why should my Dr. tell me that and knowing I am in lots of pain and he needs to do something for the PAIN and not just go by what this Drug may or may not do. ## Most doctors will have you try the medication before doing any tests for IBS. Reason being that the test is actually more painful and uncomfortable than just trying the medication (scope up the ...

I started taking Cymbalta two months ago. While it has been so great for my depression, anxiety, and osteoarthritis and back pain, it makes me so sick to my stomach and I even coughed up three drops of blood last week. I go back to my psychiatrist tomorrow and I can't take it today. I am so tired. I automatically feel so depressed after I did not take it last night. Hopefully, there is something else that can help. ## Hello, Tonya! How are you? That sounds more like you might have an ulcer, which will likely require some medical treatment. There is also a chance that it's gastritis, which the Cymbalta may be irritating. Be sure to tell your Psychiatrist about the issue, so they can make sure that this is checked out for you to get to the root of the problem. Do you take any othe...

I have been taking Lyrica 150 mg twice a day with 100mg sustained release tramadok (ultram) I have severe post hepetic neuralgia in my left thigh following an attack of shingles. This combination of meds has reduced pain by 59% allowing me to function, Then I noticed I was slowly and stadily gaining weight - about 30 lb. The interesting thing is it is all (nearly) belly weight - my waist has now completely dissapeared. The first side effect (i didn;t really notice the weight gain at first) was I was unsteady and my balance degenerated quite a bit. The I noticed typing I would mix up similar words like their and there and sea and see. The wiuld always be the wrong way round. At first the memory loss seemed an extention of aging but in the last minth it has got alarming. Today I was follo...

I was prescribed 10/325 Hydrocodone, and 5/325 Oxycodone. Which is stronger for pain after rotator cuff surgery? Neither is doing much good right now. ## ask if you can take vistril with the hydrocodone it will make it stronger and ease your belly so you don't get sick ## In those dosages, they are probably about equal, strength wise. ## To me the hydro/Tylenol & oxy/Tylenol gives the same relief. I've been on both to me anytime they have Tylenol or ibuprofen did nothing for my pain. Dr put me on oxycodone 10mg 6xs a day that was no more do to deaths related to ODS. I've had 3 pain Dr's in the last year due to the ODS have been under the care 2 of the DRs. So their being investigated. So here I sit with pain that left me mainly in bed and tears and to top it off I co...

Taking 150 mg Lyrica at night for arm radioculpathy due to c5, 6, 7 herniated discs in neck. Hard to type, sorry. Hands are week. Started med on Dec. 19 so on a little over a month. My nerve pain is better, arms are not falling asleep as much. Still have deep pain in discs. Live with it, but have been offered surgery. Idk, it seems surgery may not be a guaranteed fix...sucks. Lots of belly bloat on Lyrica. I drink lots of lemons n limes in my water to flush out my body.

I just increased my valsartan from 48 mg to 80 mg and suddenly my stomach is much larger. Is anyone else experiencing this kind of weight gain? ## Bloating and fluid retention can be side effects of this medication, according to FDA reports. You may also experience nausea, dizziness, headache, and hypotension. How much have you gained? Are you on any other medications? How much larger is it? ## Yes I have experienced the same thing an I’ve been also feeling pains in my thighs . When I climb the stair or do some dusting I get out of breath an I never felt like that til I started taking these pills. I have to see my doc this month I want to stop taking these meds ## Valsartan sucks! I was on this and it was terrible.

I have had shingles for more than a month. I went to urgent care three times already. All my doctors are on vacation now and they don't have a doctor to see me. I am in excruciating pain. First visit in urgent care they gave me Naproxen 375 mg, Valacyclovir 1 GM and Methocarbamol 500 mg at the same time. Along with Shingles I have cracked ribs too. For 10 days (this was the prescription length) I keep in control with baths with baking soda to calm down the pain and burning feeling. After that I was worse than ever. My next trip to urgent care, they prescribed Gabapentin 300 mg 3 times a day, upon following up with my doctor. They gave me a lot tests, cause of an unusual pain (like somebody stabbing a knife in my belly), the Shingles blisters was very severe. It was around my waist l...

I am 25yrs old, have had stomach cramps, bloating and severe pain around my belly button. I have been told that I might have irritable bowel sydrome, xray was taken only , will altosec and bvispas help? ## Hello, Phila! How are you doing? Altosec is used to help reduce the amount of stomach acid that you produce, to treat or prevent conditions, such as heartburn, GERD, ulcers, and gastritis. Bevispas is used to help ease spasms of the gastro-intestinal tract. The U.S. FDA lists the typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, flatulence, and stomach pain. They may help. Are these the medications your doctor told you to take?

I had some pains in my belly button, sometimes discover that I have a brown smelly discharge and pains (similar to period pains) in my lower abdonimal (left side). I went to the clinic and they gave me the green doxytet capsules(100mg) and metronidazole (200mg). The nurse that was assisting me said nothing is wrong but I'm still experiencing these pains. ## Doxytetracycline is an antibiotic that's used to treat or prevent bacterial infections. A bacterial infection could explain the symptoms you were experiencing, a smelly discharge is usually indicative of one. This medication may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea. Learn more Doxytet details here. If it isn't clearing up, you should see your doctor, as it may not be the right...

I have tried three different metformin pills but so far all have hurt my stomach and bloat me does anyone know of a pill that will not hurt my stomach or why they took the apex off the market. ## Hi, Deb! I'm very sorry about the problem that you're having with it. I'm not sure about the manufacturer of the original pill you mentioned, since I am not aware of any company that uses apex on their tablets, nor is their a pharmaceutical company with that name, so I think you may be remembering it incorrectly. As to the stomach pain, unfortunately, that can be ...

I have had over 20 procedures to reconstruct my urinary tract due to bladder mesh erosion. i self cath thru my belly button stoma and my entire spine has either herniated and bulging discs or fused discs and I am in EXCRUCIATING PAIN. My abdomen is the worst tho. I have a "bladder" made from resected bowel, colon and my appendix and I have "knives" and "hot pokers" in my belly 24/7. I need something stronger than a 10 mg oxycodone 4 times a day. My PCP won't do any more because of DEA. He referred me to pain management and they sent note to add a duragesic patch to my treatment plan. PCP refused. WHAT CAN I DO? I'm not a seeker, and don't do recreational drugs. Anyone know of a doc that would help???? ## Your PCP is severely restricted on what they ca...

I take ixprim for plantarfaiotis and carpel tunnel. Lately I've been experiencing pain down my upper abs to my bellybutton and extremely itchy all over my body. I had pancreatisis before I had my gallbladder removed 13 yrs ago and the pain is quiet the same. I'm wondering if that pain is my pancreas and if I'm doing it more damage ## Hello, Gillian! How are you? This antibiotic has been known to cause pancreatitis, as reported by the U.S. FDA, so yes, it could be causing it, but only your doctor can say for sure. Additionally, an antibiotic will do nothing to treat Carpal Tunnel. Its other typical side effects may possibly include nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Ixprim is a pain killer, not an antib...
