Hi i am an 19 year old male, diagnosed with peptic ulcer. my dad also had an ulcer also but it was after i was born ( bleeding ulcer ) so i started nexium 2 weeks ago and losec ( 3 pills ) before that and i am showing no signs of getting better. i always have nausea when i wake up and the symptoms disappear for 3hours max after i eat. now i have developed more weird symptoms like headache, fatigue and became really light headed. does this need medical attention or is it normal for a peptic ulcer? i tried drinking apple cider vinegar and it is not working so i stopped. oh one more thing i did the breathe test and i didn't have H. Pyori. i understand that 9/10 people with peptic ulcers have the virus. Please is there anything i can do? is this pain normal? Thanks in advance for anyone that replies

 The other symptoms you describe (except the nausea and pain until you have eaten) would not be typical with ulcer. I would suggest you get in touch with your doctor and describe the ongoing symptoms. You could coincidentally have something else going on as well as the ulcer.
Good luck.
