Does the pain get worse while you are eating during lunch or does it happen after 2 hours. Any blood in your stool or black stools. What is your age? Do you take any medications such as ibuprofen, naproxen etc or other medications such as blood thinners. What are your other medical conditions, or do you have diabetes, high blood pressure.
