Head and Belly Ache: It is important to determine potential causes of the original headache and to follow up to see if they have improved this past week. Fiorcet contains butalbital, which can exacerbate stomach pain. If he takes Nexium (esomeprazole) for longstanding gastric reflux, pill esophagitis is another consideration. This could be urgent. Recommend virtual consult or discussion with primary doctor tomorrow.
