Suggest Treatment For Stomach Cramps And Nausea

Hi, I was hoping you would be able to help me.
Since Wednesday, 4th Aug, i have been feeling off. After eating, I feel nauseous, and have been getting sporadic, painful stomach cramps. This became worse yesterday, at about 1pm, as I felt nauseous after eating, and this has now been a consistent thing. I have felt nauseous constantly since then...
Today, I have had quite an acidic taste in the bottom of my throat, with the need to vomit, only to find that all I do is belch. However, I have been quite close to vomiting on a number of occasions today. I am becoming quite worried, Can you give me a little idea of what it could be, just to put my mind at rest, until I see my doctor.

Hi.
Thanks for your query.
The symptoms of nausea, after taking food, and cramps, acidic taste in the bottom of throat and belching is all suggestive of an Acid Peptic Disease with may be ulcer in the stomach and esophagitis due to GERD.

I would suggest the following:
Zantac 12 hourly.
Pepcid every 3 to 4 hours when on empty stomach.
Add Domperidone or such motility regulators.
Soft bland diet.
No aerated colas / soda/ drinks.
Early dinner. No late nights.
Treatment for anxiety (as prescribed / needs a prescription by your Doctor)
Lying in a reclining position
Walk around after dinner.
Think of the factors which increased the present problem, GERD, anxiety and try to avoid.
If no relief, get Upper GI endoscopy done and get prescription for added Medicines.
EKG for the heart n a safer side to rule out cardiac problems.
I find this answer helpful
