That day my entire belly was having intense pain for several hours, and the next day, I stopped omeprazole, and the pain subsides. Now I'm back to famotidine. But the problem is, I'm having pain in more areas of the belly in addition to the upper abdominal. It gets really bad after I eat. I can feel...

Hi Helico expert, It's been 7 days of taking the PPIs (20mg twice a day) and for some reason I found my upper stomach pain getting worse in the past 2 days. It's lasting longer and doesn't get better with eating or not eating. I get waves of dull, cramping pain. Drinking antacids also doesn't stop t...

I'm wondering how to control my morning nausea/vomiting symptoms. I think these are due to the acid in the stomach after a night without food. Since I recently replaced famotidine with PPI, the PPI won't take effect as quickly as famotidine... (but famotidine could not help with the stomach pain and...

At first (shortly after finishing the HP eradication): I had nausea, vomiting, upper stomach pain, diarrhea, lack of appetite, bloating and gas Then after a month of famotidine (20mg twice/day), the nausea and vomiting greatly improved, became occasional, but the other symptoms did not get better an...

Hi helico expert,
Typically after how many days on PPIs are you supposed to feel better for someone with a normal endoscopy result and HP negative? I'm on Day 5 and haven't felt much improvement...Thanks

Hi Helicoexpert, I just had the endoscopy done. Everything was normal, and the HP was negative. But my symptoms still persist after being on a month of famotidine (20mg twice a day). The vomiting and nausea slightly improved (now I still vomit about 1-2 times a week), but the upper abdominal pain, b...

Thank you. Last time he checked me for HP, it was 3 weeks after finishing the quadruple therapy, and 10 days after getting off PPI. It was a stool test and turned out negative. Do you think this could be a false negative? I just don't understand why my symptoms recurred just 2 weeks after the eradic...

Hi Helico expert: My doctor is finally able to schedule me for endoscopy 2.5 weeks from now. Now my nausea and gas is less troublesome, but I still vomit some days, and after every meal there's a dull pain in my stomach which lasts for 1-2 hours. The doctor suggested taking PPIs between now and the ...

Should I go up on the dose to 20mg, 2/day? Or is it better to do 40mg, 1/day before bed time? What's a good dosage and timing for taking famotidine given that my symptoms are the absolute worst in the morning? Famotidine is pretty safe. However, do talk to your doctor about increasing the dose if y...
