Sorry to hear that. Yeah, sometimes I want to rip out my stomach. That's weird it came out of the blue. Could it be stress? Hope you feel better!

i did add a small amount of full fat yogurt to my diet but went without it for a day and still pain the day after that. It might be nothing and I don't go readily to the doctor but it's Friday here and if I don't go today it could be the emergency room with some inexperienced intern over the weekend. I just don't know. I doubt the yogurt could cause this pain as I was managing it months ago. Switched to non fat for the sinuses through winter. I'll feel like a goose if it is the yogurt.

Hope you are feeling better soretum.

Hang in there. There will be ups and downs. Just keep taking it one day at at time. Sometimes we have to go through hell, to get to the healing.

thanks everyone. I'm glad I had pain that took me back to the doctor as I've lost more weight and this is a concern. More blood tests yesterday and another ultra sound Tuesday. We have to find the reason for this as I'm actually eating more and still losing weight. I'll keep you posted. The pain has eased at least but my wheat bag is still my best friend!
Thanks again and enjoy the weekend. If I do nothing else these days I do take one day at a time. I think I 'd go insane if I didn't. I figure tomorrow can always be better.

I cant have any milk products with gastriits cheese is not as bad but milk esp...gets the acid going Ive read it produces more acid, I'm using almond milk and soy I enjoy a little soy yogurt now and just taking calcium supplements. Maybe your gastritis is triggered with milk too.

hi everone. no milk wouldn't be I haven't had any milk for five and half months. I've bought some milk that is naturally tolerant for digestive disorders but it's still sitting in the fridge. I'm ok with yoghurt and manage 1 slice of cheese most days. My blood tests are checking kidneys, liver and pancreas etc. I hope something explains the new pain I have and the continued weight loss. I may never open that milk. When I bought it I was almost pain free and thought I'd try the smallest amount. Now with more pain coming I won't be so silly as to try it.
Oh well, tomorrow is another day.
Thanks again for the support. I pray we're all in better health very soon.

Have you changes anything in your diet at all that might account for your pain and burning. Sometimes, I will have those symptoms, and a few days go by, and a lightbulb will go off in my head, and I will think of that one thing I ate that is now causing me such distress.

If you cannot pinpoint anything in your diet that might account for your symptoms, maybe your meds need to be tweaked a bit?? I hope you feel better soon!

no diet changes to account for it. Won't tweak anything until test results come back. May need more testing if nothing shows. Right now doctor is testing for weight loss but I also need new pain explained. Lord help me I'm soooo over this.

The ultra sound appeared normal. Will see doctor next MOnday for results of that and blood tests. My naturopath has cleared up the mystery of the pain. It's my liver. It produces the anti-inflammotories our system needs and is struggling to work with less nutrients.
Am applying warm castor oil to cotton and covering with plastic and putting on the liver area and sitting with the wheat bag on it for half our. This helps draw toxins etc out.
Also have stopped taking the zantac. Only took them to be rid of this new pain and they of course do nothing but lower my stomach acid further.
Thanks for well wishes. Hope you're all travelling better.

Hi Soretum,

I'm so sorry to hear your having a flare up again! Don't know if this might help, but when I could barely eat I would eat a avocado a day. It's packed with nutrients and good fats. Plus I drink carrot juice/spinach juice and coconut water. All those packed with nutrients. I'm having a slight flare up because I started my period. Don't forget it does go away, just keep positive!

Hope you are feeling better. I am new to this Group. I have had h-pylori and gastritis several times. Wouldn't it be helpful if our stomachs could get totally repaired for once and for all. The bout I am having now is the worst I've ever felt. Pain and bloating and discomfort are horrible. Today I was put on Pylora...a stronger antibiotic. Does anyone have home remedies for the pain and bloating?

Have you had a go at Manuka Honey - it relieves the pain but also is powerful enough to kill ulcers and heal them. Also tumeric capsules stop the pain - weill in my case anyway and again heal the stomach. Another thing I found very soothing is Silicol Gell which coats the stomach and also removes any toxic stuff from it.

thanks everyone,
My pains are easing with slight discomfort after eating. I can manage foods even with most of the pain. I've lost too much weight and cannot afford to let more go. I had avo on my toast this morning.
I hope the h-pylori clears.

Good luck Soretum!
Are you still taking natural supplements?

I am only taking the ppi every third day now. They made me sicker. I have been surviving on manuka honey, slippery elm, probiotic and mylanta. It seems worse today. I am so fed up with this and I haven't even had it for that long.

I took my kids to a movie and out to lunch the other day - it really depressed me that I had to sit there and watch them eat. It is scaring my kids because I am not eating with them or the same meals. :-(((
