My Mom just called me complaining of stomach pain that extends up to her chest and back. She had this same pain last week and I took her the er. they checked her heart and said things were fine. She had been on an antibiotic and the doctor thought that that was giving her the pain. She switched the antibiotic and still has the pain now. Pain is bad enough to keep her up at night. What do you think?
Hi and Welcome to Chat Doctor, This condition may be due to acid peptic disease or due to renal stones.  Do you have vomiting?  Detailed ultrasound study will reveal the diagnosis.  Also, Barium meals and swallow series is required in order to rule out Acalasiacardia, gastroesophageal disease and hiatus hernia.  Finally, if necessary do endoscopy for further management.  Take more fiber diet, green vegetables and avoid spicy foods.  Wish you speedy recovery.  Thank you
