I've been having really bad burps, a severe stomach ache, and feeling like I might puke since last week. I went to see a general physician on the 16th of October, and he gave me some meds to take for five days. But then, my period started on the 21st, and I woke up with my face, eyes, hands, legs, and knees all swollen. I'm also feeling dizzy, still having burps, and that stomach ache hasn't gone away. Could this be a reaction to the medicine or maybe something else going on?

Question

I've been dealing with this feeling for about 8 months now. It's like there's mucus stuck in my throat, almost like nasal mucus. A while back, about 6 months ago, I had a GI infection from H. pylori but got treatment and I'm not dealing with any infection anymore. However, I still frequently get gastrointestinal disturbances. The mucus stuck feeling is really bothering me. Any idea what might be causing this or how I can get rid of it?
