Gerd?

[apple123456]

After eating something at a fast food restaurant I vomited for 24 hours, after that I had stomach burning pain below my ribs and I have had that for the last 3 weeks the only thing that relieves the pain is zantac an acid reducer. My doctor did no blood work and said I had acid reflux even though I have none coming up through my throat. I'm getting no relief do you all think I should get a second opinion and some blood work done to see if it is h.pylori or an ulcer?

I have had Gerd for 2 years and that sounds exactly what happens to me when it flares up! Last year I went to the ER because the pain was so bad I thought I was having a heart attack! The acid never really hits my throat. I do liquid maalox 3 times a day per my doc and it keeps it under wraps!

I have never had chest pain

When that did happen they did test me for h. Pilori as well so it doesn't hurt and I would definitely get a second opinion!
