Hi all, I had admission to hospital due to stomach ache. (It was very painful, even though I've visit clinic and taken many medicines..nearly overdose! However, the pain never relief for more than 8 hours..)

I did gastroscopy screening, blood test, and urine test. All of these result is not too bad.. no ulcer found and H pylori is negative. I've spent RM3.5k for everything in hospital..

Doctor advise and prescribed me 2 different drugs and for 6 weeks.. (Nexium 40mg once per day & Ganaton 50mg three times pre day) He also gave me two bottles of "Gaviscon" (twice after meal)

Based on the screening, he said my stomach "looks very reddish" and it would take long time gradually recover.. that's why he want me to take those drugs for 6 weeks, is it necessary to take those drugs for six weeks as he told me? These medicines aren't cheap as it come from private hospital.. (RM2 for Ganaton, and around RM6.75 for Nexium..) I guess I will need not less than RM700 for the "six week courses".
Please advise on my condition, many thanks for spend your time to read this post 

That doctor told me he only did the screening of "upper side of my stomach".. the bottom side is gonna go through "anus" and he did not do that as I was so panic before the screening... It was my first time being anesthetized, alone.. so I was afraid to do it.. Shd I do the screening at "bottom side of stomach" to rule out any ulcer and diseases?

My stomach is okay now, just bought those medicines for 1 month. Kinda expensive..
As I mentioned, I've quit smoking for years.. I started smoking back because of my ex girl friend, she was a smoker and I smoke again to prove that smoking isn't hard to quit at all. However, I keep that habit till now.. (2 years ++)

I want to stop smoking... but when I retrace or get back over tons of unhappy things in my life, I will smoke (I knew how moron and absurd to give myself such reason to keep smoking)

I also smoke a lot when go to "tea" with friends who also smoke..

I've the DVD of scope findings and the test paper result of H pylori.

yes, he want to see me after two weeks.. just press press my stomach, and asking whether any spot pain or not + asking about my stomach condition. For instance, "berak" everyday or not? Stomach bloat?

Thanks for the tip, I need to take those two drugs for 6 weeks. Those medicines are intend to help me reduce stomach gas , and smooth digestion. (I guess so, from what I google and explanation from above replies)
bless day sir 

How much in total package?
How's the result?

Similar to Sentosa price. Based on your medicine should be some minor inflammation only, right?

I got the quote from Pantai which is much much higher. 

This is expensive. It’s cheaper at Sunway specialist center at sunway nexis kota damansara. Package is only 2188 with no hidden charges, only additional 150 for dr’s fees. Brought my mom there for both scopes and very happy with the service. However, opt to purchase medications outside because their in house medication is marked up.

The cause of my mom’s stomach discomfort was found during the endoscopy so i think the dr feel there’s no need for ultrasound and xray. The dr was very patient and nice by explaining the findings of the endoscopy. We were shown the endoscopy photos and we were provided with CDs without additional charges. Btw, my mom is responding very well with the treatment and I’m glad she doesn’t have colon cancer.
