How did she diagnose peptic ulcers? Mine were diagnosed with an upper endoscopy. I was on a low acid diet and given a PPI which cured the ulcers. Go to a GI doctor.

After reviewing my chart ( I’m in the system of our county medical center) her diagnosis was based on my symptoms, especially that eating or drinking caused instant stomach pain. She said endoscopies weren’t done if blood tests are normal. I would gladly see a GI if there was one on staff at the medical center, but there isn’t, and I’m not up to traveling to see one out of town.
I appreciate your input and thanks for the advice.
