    Your doctor has prescribed a med that treats severe stomach problems, acid reflux, ulcers, gastroinestinal problems but this sort of doesn't match up with the symptoms you describe.

    Are you a smoker ?

    Were you specific when describing your symptoms to your doctor?

    When you spit up, is there actually blood? Tasting blood isn't exactly the same thing.

    Excuse my questions,because what you describe sounds like a lung problem, not a stomach problem.

    You need to go see a different doctor. And explain thoroughly what you are experiencing and the fact that the original prescription does not work.
