[|Human|] I am a 60 yr old female, type II diabetic and have had a history of ulcers. I am now experiencing nausea, pain in the abdomen (left side primarily) and may be running a low grade fever. The standard OTC meds for an ulcer provide minor relief but I am having difficulty sleeping. Is it time to go back to the gastroentronologist? What can I do to allevite symptoms until I get in?
[|AI|]  Hello, If you have symptoms of acid peptic disease often enough, and if OTC medicines controlling stomach acid are not helping, then it is better to get a proper investigation done to see if there is any ulcer. So my suggestion is better to consult a gastroenterologist as soon as possible. In the meantime, you can use a PPI like Omeprazole. It should be taken on empty stomach to reduce the symptoms. Plus good blood glucose control is also essential. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
