Heartburn Stomach Problems

I have been experiencing stomach problems , I am unsure what is wrong or what doctor to see.?

I am a very petite 19 year old (103 pounds) and I have never had any medical problems, until lately I have been experiencing acid reflux and severe indigestion after my meals. I eat healthy and I get full really fast and later feel extremely bloated, get heartburn and for the rest of the day I feel like vomiting. I have taken acid reducer pills and seemed to work but now my symptoms only get worse, I wake up every night sweating with severe heartburn, nausea, and stomach pain Sometimes I get hungry but the bloating kicks in and later end up starving. I have discarded pregnancy as a cause because I am on my monthly cycle already . I have surfed online to try to find an explanation to my horrible stomach discomforts but I haven’t found much. Does anyone know what I could b suffering of and would a gastrointerologist be the right person to visit? Thanks.

This is crazy you would send this question and I read it. I actually saw a GI Dr. today. I had similar symptoms. Sounds like it could be a combination of Gastritis(inflamation in the stomach, can sometimes need anitbiotic) and a possible Hiatal Hernia(don’t freak out-a lot of people have this). Basically to break it down……..it is an area where the stomach presses into the esophagus, causing stomach juices to creep up–hence the burning. You need to see the GI dr. A lot of this is spured by stress. I was given Aciphex(PPI) (must have a prescription)2 x’s a day-my Dr. says that in his experience smaller females do well on this drug vs. others. It is good to elevate your bed mattress, stay away from fatty foods, Caffeine and don’t eat 3 hours before bedtime. If the medicince does not work for me in a week, I need to go in to be tested for the Hernia. See a GI Dr and I really hope you get to feeling better. This stinks to deal with!
