Thank you Lori. I will mention the ulcer concern at my appointment. I just have to wait until Monday for them to be open to make an appointment.

Thank you everyone for your concern and I will be looking into it. I am also going to cut down on coffee and tea. I drink a lot of it. It is herbal and most of the time decaf but apparently my step dad says there is still a certain amount of chemical that will bring on heartburn and possibly ulcers. I also learned that Advil and stress can bring on ulcers. I take a lot of advil for my jaw pain so I am going to have to find something that isn't an antinflamitory (not sure how to spell that lol).
