    • Close Gastritis

      I've had stomach problems for years but as of February of 2009 they have become more severe. Since then I've lost 20 pounds. I had a endoscopy and a colonoscopy where I had some benign polyps removed and was diagnosed with gastritis. Used to have migraines so all the medications caused the gastritis. It's really taking a toll on me and I look forward to good days ahead. It's about 50/50 now. Night time nausea is the worst.

      Treatments

      Nexium Not Working
      Gave me terrible stomach cramps!
      Prevacid Not Working
      Didn't seem to help at all.

    • Open Widows & Widowers

      I lost my husband to lung cancer complication September 07 and I thought I was doing well, but here recently I've been really down and it's caused a bad case of gastritis. I don't feel like going on and I'm so tired of being strong and putting on a "happy" face for everyone!

      Treatments

      Grief Counseling Working / Worked
      Helped at the time
      Psychotherapy Working / Worked
      Just started counseling again.
      Celexa Working / Worked
      This is the only thing that seems to be helping without any bad side effects Thank God
