Hi,I am Dr. Radhakrishna (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I've been having upper abdominal pain on and off the past week and a half, it's an ache that'll occasionally wake me up if it occurs at night and is bothersome when it occurs during the day. Pain lasts for no more than an hour at a time. Could it be stress related?

Hi, welcome to healthcare magic forum. Thank you for the query.
Your history looks like you are having gastritis problem. There may be chances of ulcer formation anywhere in GIt. Stress may be one of its cause. So I will advise you to consult any physician for the diagnosis and treatment. You can get an endoscopy done to rule out any ulcer.
Better avoid spicy ,oily and junk foods. Take plenty of fluids,fruits,juices and small & frequent meals.
Good luck.
