I really can’t stand the pain so we went home and postponed the activity that both of us planned to do. The next day I went to the doctor to have a check-up. The doctor said that it was just indigestion.

The doctor added that I must avoid oily foods, carbonated drinks and caffeine for me not to have that kind of stomach pain again.
