The pain is trully disturbing me to this point and it seems the only thing that helps is either a hot bath or a glass of eno... I've been drinking that shit almost 4 times a day now-lol.
Anyway, someone told me it might be an ulcer... Any of you had that before? What kind of symptoms did you get? Any tips to soothe the pain? Can you get an ulcer at 25? I dont have much time to go see a doc til next week.
Thanks for your help!

Sounds like you might have an ulcer depends on how long you have the pain, does it act up when you eat spicy foods, theres a lot of factors in there, i had them at age 17 so it is very possible for you to have them at 25. In my case it was almost a constant pain like someone was twisting a knife in my stomach or someone lit a fire in my stomach.
They put me Nexium and about a month later i started to feel better, only to have them pop back up about 6 months later. After they came back i took the medication again and they haven't come back since it's been about 5 years now.
I would recommend staying away from hot foods, coffeee, or anything else that could irratate your stomach.
