Peptic Ulcers Support Group
A peptic ulcer is an ulcer of one of those areas of the gastrointestinal tract that are usually acidic. Most ulcers are now known to be associated with Helicobacter pylori, a spiral-shaped bacterium that lives in the acidic environment of the stomach. About 4 % of gastric ulcers are caused by a malignant tumor, which is one reason to be vigilant in their detection.
i know it sounds so simple does this work for anyone else.as soon as i feel an attack coming on i drink a glass of milk as quick as i can and within 20 mins the pain is gone.

I do the same. It seems to put out that weird fire. Soy Milk and Full fat is best. The doc told me it "coats" my belly.

I used to be able to do that, but for some reason milk doesn't help much anymore. It doesn't make it worse, though, which is a lot to say... Didn't try the full fat milk though (usually have the 2% at home cuz i don't like the flavor of the full fat) so maybe that's what I need to do next. thanks for the tip. annie

milk is good for a quick fix for pain but it causes an acid back lash in your stomach so it is really not good for ulcers at all . best thing to do for pain either take some pepto or bismuth or carafate or eat a small bland meal . :)

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
