I have the fabulous genetic quirk of suddenly acquiring unimaginable stomach pain and nausea after taking ibuprofen or asprin. I also get frequent migraines ๐
You get checked for ulcers?
Not yet but I need to. My mom got cancer so we've met our family's out-of-pocket maximum for the year, meaning all my treatments are finally free. Thanks America! /s
Well I'll do an endoscopy on you with my phone on a selfie stick if you want.
Genuinely please do soon. My girlfriend almost died as a kid due to severe pain and docs just throwing painkillers at her, resulting in ulcers and very nearly a ruptured stomach.
