I'm sorry your pain is so bad. Stress and anxiety about eating can cause awful pain. When I was where you are now I ate while listening to a relaxation cd. Sadly it takes a long time to get rid of that horrid burning, gnawing pain. I can't imagine your frustration at yogurt causing pain. Can you manage broth? Maybe go to a liquid diet for a week and give your gut a bit of a rest.

I manage to eat oatmeal daily.. ill live.. but my doctor changed my omeprazole to rabezole and im a little bit okay now.. theres still a sublty pain but tolerable.. i only eat heavy meal at lunch because im active on that time..

I have been dealing with that awful this for 3 weeks the same pain for 3 weeks Now on and off in severity. I have been to the ER twice and urgent care twice looking for relaid. I am currently working with my GI to help with this issue but nothing seems to help. I was prescribed hydrocodine for th pain but I don't want o keep taking that for fear of damaging my liver. What has worked for you to relieve the pain? Please help!!!!!!

For me about the only way I felt some kind of relief was to take 2 Pantoprazole Sodium 40 MG with some yogurt.
For some reason if I take the PPI alone without anything in my stomach it does not take effect.
So I force drink some yogurt.
One other thing I have tried was a .25mg of Xanex to calm me down.
This helped as well... it was like my stomach calmed down and let the pain subside.

I'm taking 40 mg of pepcid a day. 20 in morning and 20 about 12 hours later. For first few days I couldnt eat so I made smoothies and drank them very slowly. Its very important to drink as much water as you can, in slow sips, so you dont get dehydrated and feel worse. It definitely helps with the acid though

I feel your pain... Iv been suffering for nearly a year now! I just can't seem to heal.
If iv learned anything it is that we all have our own individual triggers. I now keep a food diary and grade 1-10 how I feel throughout the day. It helps me highlight my errors. Iced water when I have some discomfort helps me. At the moment I'm sticking to whole foods only, no additives which is really hard and ensuring I take my lansoprazol according to the directions.

-No caffine, alchahol, fizzy drinks, sweets, high salt food high fat foods and careful on the fruit. What I would give for a pizza !
-Sit upright in the evening, don't slouch,
-eat smaller but more often,
-don't go to bed on a full tummy,
-don't excercise straight after eating,
-mostly eat what is easy to digest (needs less acid)
-steer clear of high acid foods or foods that require a lot of acid to digest.
-Dont drink when you eat, it dilutes the acid and will take longer for your food to digest.

Stay strong, chin up, be patient and disciplined... It may be a long road with no shortcuts but a worth while journey.

I couldn’t handle the meds at all. I tried accupuncture which seemed to help temporarily. I tried Chinese medicine but my stomach couldn’t handle that either. Small, frequent meals of over cooked rice and veggies has helped. What has helped the most is laser treatments on my stomach with visceral manipulation of my hiatal hernia. I’ve had it twice and believe I am in the mend. Everyone is different.
