So I have been having abdominal soreness, heartburn, acid reflux and just general discomfort that all came on suddenly last week. I have never had digestive problems at all before so I went to the nurse practitioner at my family physician's office and she gave me Kapidex as well as telling me to take Mylanta and she ordered a right side abdominal ultrasound which came out negative. She actually suggested that I might end up taking antacids permanently which is not acceptable to me. So I am thinking of seeing some sort of gastroenterologist or internist. Am I thinking correctly? Also, how do I find a doctor that wants to look for the base cause and not just treat symptoms?
BTW,
I am NOT pregnant
I am NOT having heart problems
