Please give me advice

I'm 22 and a third year uni student and suffering fro a stomach issue.it began in June 2014 after having too much alcohol. I was admitted to hospital because I was throwing up cooked blood due to acid. As time went by I gradually became worse after a night out in the end I couldn't consume more than 2 units or alcohol without excessive belching, nausea and sickness. After tests for helicobacter which were inconclusive I decided to stop drinking. I am now on week six so this has dramatically changed my social life and I am now on 20mg of omeprazole. For the first month it started ok. I cut Alcohol, spicy food, all fizzy drinks, orange juice. Now I'm faced with crippling stomach pain, the belching is back and as worse as when I used to drink. I throw up bright yellow acidic sick and have diarohea frequently. I have to wait 2 weeks till my GP appointment. I'm still taking omeprazole, I'm exhausted and I need help. I just want to not be uncomfortable every day.

With your symptoms, consider going to an immediate care facility or hospital ER.

this was posted on a different thread but might be helpful: try a tablespoon of honey with cinnamon powder mixed in before each meal. However - have your doc look for early signs of liver disease. They often don't show up on routine diagnostic screens until is much too late.
