He was orignally diagnosed with Gastritis, and yes, the upper abdominal pain was the main symptom. They gave him Donnatal (generic Belladonna), which helped that...along with the acid reducers. He would also get a cough from it. Then he'd wake up every night with pain and/or nausea. After the endoscopy is when we found out that he still had gastritis, GERD, and is lactose intolerant, which threw me since he never had a reaction to dairy. It wasn't until he started taking Nexium that he started sleeping through the night.
