    question

    Hello my husband is not feeling well at all. He has a ulcer has had for 16 years and also acid reflex will he always has done alot of burping but lately anyting he eats or drinks bothers him belching all the time stomach bloated and just feels very uncomfortable including he says his chest feels kind of tight. His uncle passed away from espohaus cancer so he is always thinking about that. We don't have insurance right now so of course he does not want to go to the dr? I think he needs to go though he wonders if maybe it could be gallbladder?

    They have found that many ulcers are caused by a bacteria that responds to antibiotics.

    Can you get insurance through the state/medicade


    Sometimes ya just gotta go to the DR even when you dont have the money. I wouldn't take chances.

    We tried getting help through the state but seeings we own 4 vehicles and what we owe on them we got turned down. I think it is a crock that they punish a person for this it is not like we own the vehicles or even our house.

    I mean., what could it hurt to have him drink some., I'd give it a shot. At least you don't have to spend alot on it., you probably have some in your fridge right now.

    The symptoms I had before having my gallbladder removed was, sever pains & always sick to my stomach. My doctor sent me to have an untrasound done and two days later I had my gallbladder removed.

    My sister has acid reflux & she has the same symptoms as you described. Oneday she thought she was having a heart attack, it was acid reflux.
    Don't worry about what people think. They don't do it very often.
