Hi,
I was wondering if upper abdominal pain and discomfort normal to have, like mid upper abdominal pain of the left side . or is it a side affect, what can cause this ?
-
I noticed that I have more heartburn than anything else. Never had any actual pain though, but different people have different effects I guess. How's your diet?
-
my diet is great, I don't drink coffee or soda don't drink I always drink water and Im a vegetarian and I eat at normal times it just might be heartburn.

Did u recently begin treatment?
-
I know this might be a bit personal, but are you experiencing any increase in the incidence of diarrhea? I found that I had that quite a bit the first few months I was on this medication, and that often caused abdominal discomfort. If that is the case, you could try and see if over-the-counter anti-diarrhea medication could help. In my case, it has pretty well gone away on its own.

Left side could be diverticulosis/diverticulitis....

Ac7088 - I've been on treatment for 1 and 9 months.
vaguesbleues - I do not have diarrhea lol.

Don't forget to bring this up with your doctor at your next appointment - or sooner if it get worse.
