Help with symptoms

Hi there. I've had a flare-up of heartburn-GERD symptoms for over a week now, with another strange syptom. It's a constant burning and raw soreness in my very lower abdomen - around where my bladder or uterus would be. I thought maybe a UTI or GYN problem, although I don't have any of the symptoms that accompany those. The burning is only inside my body. I had GERD a couple of years ago, but it hasn't come back until now. I take Prilosec, Pepcid and Pepto Bismol with minimal relief. It's not really going away, so I figure I might have H pylori (which I've had before) and I've made a Dr.s appt for this week. I do feel general malaise, fatigue and like I have some sort of infection. I'd like to know if anyone has ever had this kind of pain and symptoms together? It's confusing! Thanks so much for any feedback.

Have you had a urinalysis done along with a urine culture? That will rule out bladder infection.


Hope you are feeling better soon ,
