I would tell you to go to a primary care
physican and have yourself tested for
Helicobacter pylori. This is a bacteria
that causes ulcers and also can lead to
stomach and/or esophogus cancer if not
found and eradicated. I had this, had your
symptoms along with heartburn, acid
reflux, stomach pain (little stabs) and
found I had to let go a lot offoods I
enjoyed. Had an endoscopy and it was
determined I had the H. Pylori, was given
2 weeks of high power antibiotics to
eradicate this, now on nexium to heal the
damage (I had gastritis, no signs of
ulcers or anyting else. But, its gonna
take a long time for the stomach lining to
heal. Looked like someon had taken
scissors in there and just chopped away! I
feel your pain! I would definately go see
a doctor and have yourself checked before
it gets worse! Good Luck!
