hi, Im jess 26 yrs 130lb 5' 4" ht No health problems until the last two weeks. I have been getting pains in my upper abdominal area. it has been getting worse with time. This is how the pain started today: I woke up bad head ache took 2 Excedrin and a glass of water ate French toast and bacon. as the day went on I became increasingly uncomfortable with nausea pain tell I vomited. I'm still uncomfortable and would like to know if I should seek medical attention?

Hi, Thanks for using HCM.

Most common cause for your symptom is gastritis. Use of antacid will reduce your symptom. I usually prescribe Pantoprazole 40 mg once a day for my patients with problem for 5 days.
If your symptom persists or doesn't improve with this need to get ultrasound abdomen to rule out gall stones.
