So remember back at the beginning of the year when I was suspecting that ibuprofen was destroying my insides?

I’m pretty sure I was right.

Reflecting back on the symptoms I had – super bad upper gastrointestinal discomfort (especially when running, which was conveniently right after I took ibuprofen), lots of gastro pain in general, puking, puke that looked like coffee grounds, and very dark stool (TMI, sorry) – I’m pretty sure I had some sort of gastrointestinal bleeding going on. My guess is the source of the bleeding was higher rather than lower based on the pain and that it might have even been an ulcer.

The fact that the pain and other symptoms stopped a month or so after I stopped taking ibuprofen and switched to Tylenol is another hint.

Now I guess I have to worry about too much Tylenol, though, haha.

Or just be in pain all the time.

Either/or.
