Patrick(my Boyfriend) Might Have An Ulser. Posted: 10-18-04 16:26pm
A lot of the time he can't keep anything
down, he gets these really bad stomach
pains...I told him that im going to make
him go to the doc but he said he wont.
Because they always tell you that
something is wrong, and I don't need to
know if something is wrong with me. I'm
like well we need to check and see just in
case it's something more than an ulser and
he wont go! So I dunoh what i'm going to
do.
My brother has had an ulcer for years. At
time he'll spit up blood for days. It's
bad but he won't go get med for it
tell pat to go! That is a serious thing
if left untreated

Its like that old stereotype that guys
wont go to the doctor.. But it can
honestly be serious.. Ulcers can hurt and
become really serious and lead to other
health problems if you dont get them
checked out.. Let patrick know that he's
important to you and you dont wanna see
him sick.
Goodluck.. I know how stubborn guys can
be!

He may have stomach ulcers like my mom.
Try to get him to drink a lot of milk, it
should help if he does have stomach
ulcer's, but he still needs to see the
doc. Me can be so stubborn. I think jon
has tonsillitis, and he can hardly eat,
but he still won't go to the doc. I wish
they still made house calls.

Lol.. Yeah.. Bf won't go to the doc for
anything! He nearly cut his thumb off
before (literally) and how does he fix it?
Duck tape! Lol.. I'm serious! But
anywho.. Make your bf go to the doctor,
that sounds serious.. Hope it's not
anything too too bad though.. G luck.

My grandmother had a bleeding ulcer...And
she was loosing a lot of blood in a long
period of time though...All from taking
excedrin...Anyways..
Duck tape.... Hehe that's cute. Ulcers
suck, my dad has a bleeding ulcer but the
prescription is too expensive, says he.
While duct tape is very useful, I don't
know about it being used in any sort of
medical way...

Two of my friends had ulcers. One of
em... Didnt know and was doin an exam and
ran to the bathroom and started puking up
blood like mad crazy an they had to call
an ambulance. He was hospitalized for 1
week... It was scary.
My other friend has 3 ulcers in his
stomach from drinking. He takes meds but
becuz anytime he'll just slam a 26 of
bacardi or something, it doesnt help with
his stomach too much but hes had em for a
year and a half and has been drinking like
this since he had em.... Hes not so bad
cuz he has meds for it.. So get him to go
to a doc an get some meds cuz it could
turn out serious as in hospitalization.
