Iv been getting alot of stomach pains lately and I read that dex causes that to happen. If i dont take the dex for 2 days the pains go away, but since i take dex normally on a daily basis the pains on and off. Does anyone have any suggestions that may help me out with this side effect?
-Iv already tried magnesium to help but that dd not do much
thanks

Does it have anything to do with not eating anything?

This is the same question that I was going to ask.
Sometimes people can be sensitive to a given chemical in their stomach when other people might not be as sensitive to the same chemical. Do you think this pain is related to the drugs presence in your stomach?
If we do not been eat enough, the pain that we traditionally associate with "hunger pains" is due to the stomach acid essentially "eating" the lining of our stomachs. When we toss some food down there, we are able to neutralize the acid somewhat, and we are able to counter the pain of hunger. Do you think it might be hunger pains from not eating normally?
I hope that you will discuss this with your Dr if you are unable to figure it out. It's always better to be safe about these things.
Please keep us posted on how this unfolds.
