need help

Hi everyone.... Im feeling extremely anxious worrying that there is something seriously wrong with me...I hope someone here has some assurance or good advice.

A couple weeks ago I started having heart burn & acid reflux. My bowel habbits went from pretty normal to crampy & not great. An occasional feeling of nausea. Once in a while it feels like food gets stuck in my throat. Then about a week ago I start feeling discomfort under my right rib like theres something under there . Now I have that feeling under both ribs...its like a pressure...or bottom of ribs are sitting on something. And now bottom of ribs ache now and then!!
I went to emerg today.....Dr felt my abdomen said liver feels fine, (that was my worry as my husband is dying from liver cancer). Gave me Pantiprazole & an order for an ultra sound. waiting for a call on that.

Ie had acid reflux over the years....but never this feeling of fullness under my ribs or the ache....& im worried. Anyone else here know what im talking about? Been through it??

Thank you

Yes I’m going through the same thing you’re not alone. They gave me prednisone and made symptoms worse. Bland diet, avoid nsaids, sleep sitting , avoid trigger food. It’s just taking time. I was told I have a hiatal hernia. Scheduled to run ph probe and manometry impedence.i think I had an ulcer.im sorry about your husband too.it could be the stress .im also on protonix and break through antacids.
