Hmm...doesn't everyone get a bit "bilious" now and again?

Undiagnosed dyspepsia
- a great phrase.

Is there a balancing act between between chucking a few omeprazole tablets (they're cheap and work well) and missing progressive cancers?

'scope everyone, and we'll kill more than we'd cure. (Some perforate, some of those die.)

Those in primary care, (where 40% of our patients present with tummy problems) tread the line finely.

Isn't this thread about statin's?
