and pain above the belly button. My doctor suspects an ulcer flaring up and has given me nexium to treat. I will see her in a week. Nexium is not having much effect. What is a differential diagnosis and what test can I have to deny or confirm ulcers? Is it possible to have multiple ulcers? I also suffer from tremors
are red flags for Celiac disease, as are the slow bowel movements. Celiac disease is where you are allergic to gluten, which is a protein in certain grains like wheat. It damages your small intestine and causes malnutrition and a wide range of symptoms. One friend had ONLY heartburn as a symptom, and she had an advanced case. Even the tremors
Thanks for the input. I don't know anything about Celiac, so this is helpful. My dr did test me for celiac and I will be getting those results on tuesday. I will keep you posted. She did test me for thyroid dysfunction also, not sure how gastro issues come into play there, but that would explain tremors and weight loss. Thanks again- A
