Hello, for a few days now I've had a stomach ache, a heart ache and a burning sensation in my back under my shoulder blades. I have already vomited twice but nothing seems to get better.

Hello ma'am, I'm sorry to read about your troubles! I strongly suggest that you contact your pharmacy to obtain Gravol, which is available in several forms such as liquid, tablets and suppositories if you cannot take anything by mouth Once the nausea has subsided, I suggest that you drink a lot of liquids gradually, a few sips every 3 to 5 minutes to avoid filling your stomach too quickly. When you start eating again, go with light foods such as soups, broths, toast with butter, eggs, etc. Avoid heavy or sweet foods such as red meat and undiluted fruit juices. If vomiting persists for more than 3 days or if you are unable to hydrate yourself, you should consult a doctor. I will remain available if you have any further questions Sincerely, Tom Samaha, pharmacist
