incivek belly ache and abbreviations

just started reading here - what are the abbreviations meaning? tx, sx, UND?

Also how about the belly ache with bloat and belching from Incivek - any tips on this? I am on week two, after unsuccessful dual therapy 10 yrs ago.

Thanks, everyone, for shating.

Welcome to the forum.

Zofran (ondansetron) did the trick for me ... got rid of the nausea, vomiting, belching, bloating. I took 8 mg every 8 hours. It is prescription.

For the stomach problems ask your doc for zofran (ondansetron) it's for nausea

Heres a link on the abbreviations below, as for the other you might ask your doctor for something like prevacid, or prilosic. They are a PPI and should help.......... Welcome here.

For bloat and belching from fat intake Nexium has been my savior. Ask your doctor to prescribe 40mg and take all12 weeks.
UND means Undetected. Don't know what tx, sx means.
Good Luck to you this time around!
