To have a little moan? I'm in pain and fed up

For about 10 days or so I've had stomach pain in my upper tummy. It improves when I've got a full stomach. It's worse in the morning. The pain is relatively mild and sometimes intensifies at random.

Usually I just get on with it but I'm really feeling it ever since my GP had a feel of my tummy.

I'm happy with her plan of treatment - Wait 2 weeks and then send off a sample to test for a bacteria that can cause stomach problems. I can't send it off before since I've been taking Lanzoprazole and need to be off of it for a while first.

I'm in pain and can't have anything but Gaviscon, of which I can't afford to buy and I've been told can't be prescribed.

Ever since the examination, the pain has gone from mild to moderate. I'm just so fed up. I've got things to get on with. I can't be hanging around feeling sorry for myself.

Argh. Why can life be so miserable?

It’s the 21st century. People shouldn’t be left in pain for 2 weeks. Go back to your gp.

You can get the unbranded form of gaviscon for much cheaper in Asda or savers etc. Go back and explain pain had increased x
