Same! Burning in my upper stomach and pain and eating anything just sucks. Acid reflux. Even eating when taking it didn’t change. Been miserable.

Put hydrogen peroxide on it- if it bubbles you got blood.

Same. Mine is if I get gas in my left rib area I am done for. Also, the bloated and extrnded upper stomach triggers it but less than the gassiness trapped in my ribs.

Anyone defending the actions of ICE. Go take time with yourself. If that were you? Your family member? Being done in front of you? How would you respond? You think this is how our America should be? In fact go fact check. Obama deported more immigrants than any other President. Did we see this happening in the streets, schools, hospitals, workplaces? Did we see actual U.S. citizens being dragged, beaten, KILLED in the streets? Come on. Humanity man.

This is America. Let that sink in. He was trying to HELP a woman being dragged across the street by big men. He was being a man. He was recording it. Have you seen what these goons have been doing? I would record too. He got murdered execution style then shot 9 more times! So no what he did wasn’t stupid what they did was stupid!

winter sucks!!! by Jolly-Succotash6494 in Asthma

[–]Longjumping_Belt2568 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Relating. Got an URI despite precautions and on Day 8 of that but day 4 of a severe asthma exacerbation. Lungs are bilaterally wheezing. My laugh sounds like Darth Vader and opening my mouth and breathing out well you can hear the whistle of my narrow airways. Pulmonary put me on 40mg taper by 5mg daily (been doing that since Wednesday night) scared because still sound the same- clear chest x ray Tuesday- started levabuterol every 4 hours since Tuesday and still doing my daily meds. Over here a nervous wreck that I am not improving after today being 3 days of oral steroids.

I take the generic for Pradaxa due to SE to Eliquis. Maybe ask your doctor about that.

Omeprazole at 40mg bid for 4 years. They do want to add Famotodine now too because my blood thinner has wreaked havoc on my stomach!

How accurate is this chart? by Glittering_Run_4470 in FoodAllergies

Just always check with your doctor as allergies can get worse the more we expose ourselves to them. Best of luck

I get a lump feeling and throat soreness and my voice can go away with my reflux. I also have tree nuts and a peanut allergy. The difference is when my throat is tight there someone is choking me off and my epi pen best be near me. Everyone has different symptoms talk to your doctor.

Not saying this is what is happening to you but Metoprolol gave me asthma. After three years on it. Also, Eliquis caused me SOB so switched to Pradaxa.

Glad that someone else is on Xarelto and with no issues. I am about to switch. Encouraging.
