I unfortunately have this problem. Did your diarrhoea last long? I have heard that if it continues, you are at risk of stomach ulcers or stomach bleeding. Is this true?

Oh my god yes. I found taking lemon juice of a whole lemon and pulp subdues the pain within a minute or two. It may take 2 lemons if real bad.

I get dramatic abdominal swelling and accute discomfort when I take nsaids. I have had migraines for years and I have found that excedrin migraine works for me to knock out the greatest amount of pain. But it makes me very sick. What I did at first is take an Airborne in a bottle of water. I was assuming it was the electrlyte qualities Airborne seems to have. That really helped for a while but the situation got worse. I tried eating an apple with the medicine. That helped a lot. Apples and carrots are the most common base for juicing. They are very cleansing and very healing. I don't care for carrots so I used apples. After months the condition got worse. These days I take a minimium effective for me dose of pepto bismal with the medication. My doctor said pepto bismal is safe with all my medications. I take as little as possible because, at least in my case, it does slow my intestines down very uncomfortably if I use it very much or very often. I have been using this for years and it is still working for me. I know excedrin migraine and other nsaids absolutely don't agree with me so I try very hard to not take them unless I absolutely have to. I think I have had most every symptem that comes with migaines and I am a very frequent migraine sufferer so I take this all very seriosly. I still eat the apples to help protect and try heal my system. What works for me may work differently, or may not work for another person. But if it helps someone else I am grateful. Above all, STAY AWAY FROM MSG WHICH IS A TRIGGER FOR MIGRAINES. I am amazed how many migraine sufferers still don't know this. I will have an unstoppable migraine for 3 1/2 days from coming into contact with any MSG. The only instance of MSG not being a trigger for a migraine sufferer was someone who said their migraines were exclusively caused by hormones, and I've talked to a lot of migraine sufferers.

I second this. Ibuprofen and aspirin should always be taken after food to cushion the stomach. And you should seek medical advice if you get stomach upset following use of these.

Do you still have your appendix, or have you ever suffered gallstones? Just a thought. My advice is to get a gastroenterologist quickly. Good luck.

I am 15 years old and have to take ibuprofen 4 times a day for treatment for arthritis. The first cupple of times tacking ibuprofen I was very ill until my doctor gave me a drug which settles the stomach & the acid it is called omeprazole and it helps! But the other way which I uses to get rid of the pain is to drink and eat to flush my system. I hope this helps but if not i would go to your doctor.

Ibuprofen can certainly cause stomach issues...some severe. I have had multiple surgeries on my stomach lining and all my surgeons and gastro docs advise me to stay away from all of them as much as possible. It is hard because I have knee joint problems, but I have to try to use Icy Hot patches and sometimes aspirin. It can be rough. Also DO NOT drink alcohol of any kind if you have ibuprofen in your system...it can SHUT DOWN your liver completely!!!
