I think it's time for a new doctor

It has been a little over two weeks since I was in the ER. One of the problems that landed me there has returned. Massive burning pain in my stomach and blood in my stoole. I have had this problem on and off for 8 years and nothing gets done about it. The last few months it has gotten worse. I know I have an ulcer. All the doctors ever do is give me antacids. The few times that they have ordered tests, it takes so long To get appointments for CAT scans and ultrasounds that the problem has temporarily resolved itself and they find nothing :(
So I've spent most of today in bed trying to combat the pain along with this crappy morning sickness. I'll be 6 weeks tomorrow and it it just getting worse.

 | Comment from Sianny » Posted May. 19, 2014 2:44am Have you been tested for Chrones at all? from what you've said the symptoms are very similar also have they looked/tested for the presence of helicobacter pylori? They tested me for that as it's a good indication of ulcer. Hope it gets sorted soon for you x |
