Wednesday night i began getting sick. My symptoms included: stomach spasms(worse when laying down), sore throat(hurts to swollow), pain in my right lower rib, nausea, dizziness, and random hot flashes. I have not thrown up although ive felt like it for several days; ive also been constipated. I havent been able to get much sleep because of my spasms, sometimes ill wake up choking on air. I had reason to believe that i have an ulcer since all the symtoms match and the fact that most of the causes were things that i did on the regular basis, such as: Use of anti-inflammatory medications(aspirin), smoking cigarettes(quit about 1month ago), consuption of caffeine, psychological stress, type O blood type, and poor diet(most of the time i have one meal a day and its always either mexican food or something fatty). I went in to see my doctor because i was worried about this, however, she told me that there is no possibility of me having an ulcer. She had me have my lungs xrayed and my blood drawn. After my xrays were taken i asked to look at them, there was an about 3 inch in diameter shape(i dont remember) right under my rib, i asked what it could be and she told me that she thought it was a large air bubble but id have to wait for the doctors to call me. I was also prescribed zantac; then she suggested i get some ibuprofen. Theres no possibility of pregnancy. If you have any idea of what this could be it would really help. Thanks
