Have aches and pain in chest from GERD and Colitis. Tylenol helps

Posted by mikejjb123 @mikejjb123, Feb 10, 2024

I have GERD and Colitis. For years I would wake up to nausea. Now I wake up to chest aches and pain. Not my heart as I went to the doctor. Tylenol does help. Any ideas why this is occurring???? Thanks.

Hi. Still going for tests. Already tested positive 4 years ago for gastritis? GERD, and have UC as well. Thanks for asking Mike

I have had UC for 35years and dealing with GERD for about 20. I also had colon cancer which required multiple bowel resections and caused a myriad of other issues. The cancer was in 2019. I have consistently woken up with nausea and take zofran almost every day. It may be a symptom of reflux but I just deal with it. Some days it lasts all day, other days not so much. It depends a lot on how clean my diet is. I don’t have a gall bladder anymore.

Dexilant helped a lot with reflux, but insurance doesn’t want to pay for it so I take a generic

I have random chest pains at times, but strongly feel it’s related to my anxiety. Maybe ask for a script for zofran ?

Hi there. I suffer from degenerative Disc disease and have had 11 level fused, on pain meds as well as a pain pump from my pain managent doctor. I live with chronic fibromyalgia as we which causes GI issues and all over widespread body pain. I am more active than I used to be as long as I take advantage of resting throughout the day/eve. Its not a life I with upon anyone as my pain goes from.a 5-8 throughout the day. Im limited with what I can accomplish but have a very supportive husband and son that assist where needed.
