I had several bleeding ulcers cortorized with an endoscopy about three months ago. Since then I have been on prevacid. For the last three weeks or so I have started having stomach pains again. Two weeks ago I experienced a loose green stool with quite alot of red blood on top of it. Since then I have had black stools which are all loose. I experience pain in my stomach before I eat and it starts back about an hour after I eat until I eat again. I have been very fatigued lately. My back has been hurting even though I haven't felt like exercising. I find that for the last several weeks, my testicles are very sensitive. Any time they are squeezed slightly, it takes a few moments and then they hurt a little. But I experience extreme pain in my stomach area (up above the navel towards the side of the offending testicle). Is this normal association with the ulcers? Just FYI the earliest my gastroenterologist can fit me in is in a week from now. Should I be watching out for any other symptoms.
