Will my sister be ok? she was rushed into surgery for perforated ulcer. she is age 28 smokes and has daily migraines. takes excedrin everday. advise?

I hope so: I hope she'll be ok. The daily excedrin may be the problem. There are good medications for treatment of migraines that don't erode the stomach lining. There are also medications that can be taken daily to prevent migraines.
