my rib cage. But in the middle. It is
alot worse in the morning! I feel sick at

hours and after breakfast, the pain
subsides alittle. I can't tell you how
many botttles of ematrol I have went
through in the past year!! I will make an
appointment today. Something is wrong.
Please send any tips or information you

You are very likely candidate for
experiencing a peptic ulcer. You can
request an endoscopic gastroscopy and
Helicobacter pylori –serology. An
abdominal ultrasound and standard blood
analyses with liver status are also
recommended as diagnostic procedures.
