Marcy is a 34-year-old female here today with her daughter for a followup regarding her chest pain and GERD. The patient tells me following her last evaluation on July 1st, she did take the Nexium as was recommended. She was taking 40 mg for about a month. She said that worked very well. Her symptoms lessened and ultimately resolved. However, when she ran out of the Nexium, the symptoms are back again. She feels a pain in the lower sternum area, as well as in the upper epigastric area and was relieved when it went away with the Nexium. She has not continued to take it and wonders what she should do next. She is eating and drinking normally. She did try to cut back on dairy as she initially thought that might be related, but found that was not the case and now has that back in her diet. She is up three pounds since I last saw her and is at her highest weight that I have in the office. She is having no nausea, no vomiting. No early satiety. There is no diarrhea. No constipation. No blood in the stool. No melena. She wonders what the next step should be. She does tell me that when she was talking with her family, her mother has had an ulcer and her sister has been diagnosed with "stress ulcers" in the past.
