Q. Can a antibiotic for MRSA cause pain across the upper stomach and heartburn type pain, in the back, 5 months after you finished taking it??

I've just been diagnosed with gastric mucosal abnormality characterized by erythema and hiatus hernia. For over 15 yrs. I was diagnosed with IBS and taking Prevacid. End of Sept. 08 had MRSA. First given an antibiotic by IV and after diagnosis given a very strong antibiotic that caused extreme stomach pain. Now I have pain constantly in the stomach area & recently heartburn type pain in left side of back spreading over to right side and type of food does and doesn't make a difference. Any help would be appreciated.

Hello! I am having the SAME problem as you. I was diagnosed with H. Pylori last year, and after finishing the medication have been having severe stomach pains....8months later. Now I've been diagnosed with gastric mucosal abnormality characterized by erythema. Did you get any results, or find out anything? I would love to steer my Dr.'s in the right direction to get rid of this pain!! thanks for the help!

I had an upper GI endoscopy procedure performed yesterday. The preliminary report says "Gastric mucosal abnormality characterized by erythema. Biopsied.

After reading your topic review it made me think. I too have had back paid, heartburn and yet nothing other than this has shown on my report. I will be anxious to get the biopsy back and see if anything was picked up. I will report back. I was beginning to think I have been imaging the pain.
