Suggest Treatment For Intense Heart Burn, Stomach Cramps And Loose Stool

default
Posted on Wed, 5 Aug 2015
Question: Hi,
31 year old female. I'm on 40 mg pantaloc. ive been scheduled for a scope in a few weeks due to intense heartburn for the last few years.
For the past two weeks I have been suffering from stomach cramps. it starts around my belly button and is fairly localized to that area. few scraps around almost all day and evening but it seems to be worse after I eat, it doesn't matter what I eat. usually about half an hour after I eat I get loose stools and it continues for about 4 to 5 times throughout the day. I am wondering if this is caused from the medication or from an underlying condition. ever since I have started on the medication I do not suffer from heartburn anymore.
