What Could The Cause For Discomfort In The Stomach Associated With Shortness Of Breath And Sweating Be?
Hi I am wondering what I should do. I am 19 y/o female 5”4 and 91lbs. I am always very short of energy and light headed. I can see every bone and have a sink hole in between where my ribs meet. I get very stressed about school and tend to forget to eat and I am a first year freshman in college. Today I woke up hungry and tried to eat a banana and threw it up immediately and tried other foods as well and nothing stayed down. My parents don’t believe I have a real problem and think I choose not to eat but my stomach hurt when I eat. It gives me a stomach ache like there’s a brick. My heart feels like it’s racing and I keep sweating and feel short of breathe. I’m not sure what to do

What Could The Cause For Discomfort In The Stomach Associated With Shortness Of Breath And Sweating Be?
Hello dear and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice. Your symptoms seem to be related to gastritis which is an inflammation of the lining of the stomach. I suggest using antacids such as Maalox three times a day. I also suggest using medication to lower the acidity in the stomach such as Omeprazole 20 mg daily in the morning before breakfast. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Kind regards! Dr.Dorina Gurabardhi General &Family Physician
