I was sent to this hospital by my gp for stomach pain yellow stools and acid reflux they just did an upper endoscopy they didn't check liver kidneys or gallbladder after the endoscopy the doctor told me I have a big hiatus hernia and mild gastritis I said to him what about the yellow stools he said that was something different but he refused to look into it then he told me that the pain on the left side of my stomach and the pain on my left Kidney was because my acid reflux he said that I had to take medication but I cannot take any of the prazol family omeprazol esomeprasol etc. They give me bad side effects, very intense stomach pain back pain knees pain and very itchy skin he said that j needed to take h2 blockers like femotidine to see if they workand he said I needed to do a 24 hours pH manometry but they don't have that service in the hospital he sent me to my GPS again I tried femotidine and nizatidine and they just work for a few hours and my GP gave me a referral for Hamerton hospital to do the 24 hours pH and they say do not have appointments i am still waiting since may 19 living in misery every day I have to work in pain taking antiacids and sodium bicarbonate in large amounts to stop the acid and they don't even work properly and sleeping at night is another problem what kind of hospital leave a patient suffering like this?
