Stomach Pains

I have been battling pain in my stomach for quite some time now.  Last night it was unbearable.  Even with all of the medicine I have been taking and my bed raised I couldn't sleep.  It has been very challenging to deal with.  My stomach hurts a lot after I eat, but if I don't eat something the acid reflux is terrible.  Dr. Mulry did make an appointment with a surgeon for me.  He has given me all of the types of medicine that he knows for me to try and is ready for someone to tell me exactly what is causing the pain and acid reflux.  If I had to guess I would say that I have an ulcer.  I had one before and the pain is in the same spot.  My other thought is a hiatal hernia. I was so sick when I was pregnant I was told several times that I would probably have problems with that as I aged.  I will have to wait and see what the specialist says.  Until then I will try to rest when I can.
