Hi. I've been having pain under right rib, above the waist, with excessive burping and bad breath (about 1 week). ALso started 1week ago a low carbohydrate diet to lose weight and lower A1C from 8.6 to under 6.0. Also started taking a large 450 mg multi vitamin 1 week to keep up nutrition. Feeling more energy, getting up earlier. Age 69 just retired. Diabetic type 2 about 15 yrs. acid reflux diagnosed about 10 yrs ago. Taking pantoprazole daily for acid reflux. My guess excess gas in stomach. Medications: metformin, glipizde, januvia, Prozac 50 mg, Lisinopril, atoravastatin, Welbutrin ( 1 week), pantoprazole, seniors probiotic. Too
many meds, taken all at once at bedtime, sometimes w/o meal. Elevated liver and kidneys doctors on watch.
Fatty liver, no exercise. Not motivated (depressed) for better health. 5'0", 163 lbs. Considering going to urgent care. Usual internist not available till next week. Thank you.
