Gastric Chemistry

For today’s Microblogvember prompt, mix, I reflect on the chemical rollercoaster I’ve been on for the past few weeks. I had a cold that lasted a few weeks, which I normally take Advil Cold & Sinus for, then very uncomfortable acid reflux likely triggered by the Advil, followed by stomach pain from the Pantoprazole I started taking for that. On top of all that, switching another medication from one with unusual side effects to another with more predictable side effects that include nausea. And cutting coffee all of a sudden so that stomach can recover. Not a happy stomach, bleh mood, hopefully all temporary. The plus side: blogged through all of it and happy to be almost a month into daily blogging.
