Ulcers

Stress does not cause ulcers…

NSAIDs do.

Stress causes headaches

Which leads to NSAID use…

Which leads to ulcers.

But ulcers are not caused by stress.

Which is very comforting since I am under a ton of stress…

I’m just suffering through the headaches…

Not wanting to add the NSAIDs

To the acid already building in my stomach…

And eating my esophagus.

So, I’ll keep popping antacids…

And drinking milk…

In hopes that Dr. Google hasn’t lied…

You know, about stress and ulcers…
