Have stomach pains all the time. Wonder if it has anything to do with meds? Metforim, Crestor,

Lavaza, Lisinipril. Spelling probably not correct.

Metformin- Abdominal or stomach discomfort.
Crestor- Nausea or upper stomach pain.
Lovaza - Upset stomach.
Lisinopril- Rarely indigestion.

I would take this up with the doctor if I were you and check with your pharmacist. Cause pharmacists know drugs better than doctors.

we will see what happens. I was very worried about cancer but now at least I have some alternative causes that may be causing it.
