Stomach Pain, Headache, Nausea, Urge For Bowel Movement In Middle Of Night While Sleeping. Tried Pepto, Tylenol, Gatorade

Hello,
I have been having a strange problem.
I will wake up in the middle of the night with a horrible stomach ache, headache, intense nausea, and the feeling I need to use the bathroom (#2). This has happened a few times. At first I associated it with my menstrual cycle, but it happened again last night and I'm in a different 'stage' of my cycle. I have tried pepto, tylenol, water, gatorade, etc.

Hi,
Welcome to HCM.

I am suspecting acute gastritis in your case. I suggest you take Cap Omez 20 mg twice daily before food for a week. Fluid diet is recommended. Avoid oily, fatty and spicy food for the week. Drink at least 3-4 liters of water per day.
This pain is not related to your menstrual cycle.
I would also suggest a lighter meal in dinner to avoid recurrence of gastritis.

Thanks.
