So I'm pretty sure I have a nervous stomach problem, other than constantly taking meds(Pepto Bismol, immodium, etc), is their something I could do to help calm my stomach down? Like some other drug? My mom does plan on taking me to stomach doctor but it probably won't be till after she's done with some of her own medical issues. So any suggestions?

I would go see your gastroenterologist about that, it sounds to me like your stomach may be creating too much acid. Aside from what you're already doing and going to the doctor, there's not a whole lot else you can do. It may be a good idea to watch some of the things you eat more closely, as that could be causing it, but I would definitely ask a doctor about that.

I have the same problem, I actually have to take pepto before I can go to school. I'm trying this metamusil or however its called. Its fiber therapy. Adding more fiber into the diet could help, thats what my mom wants me to do first. If it still continues after a week or so of using that stuff then I suggest you do see the gastro doctor.

QEII....

Sounds like you're stressed about something?

The doc will ask about your bowel movements. Are you constipated? Or the opposite?

Stressed? Not possible, but I'll look into drinking more water/tea and I don't eat breakfast in the mornings that I have school, me and food don't do well that early in the mornings, but thanks.

Definitly go see a doctor, they can help you out a lot. I have Crohn's disease, so I have plenty of experience in this area haha. Just stay away from stress and try seeing if there are certain foods that screw with your stomach. If you have anymore questions about this kind of stuff or if your doctor tells you you need to have an upper and lower GI done, hmu. Been there, done that haha.
