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.
Hello,
I have been suffering a peptic ulcer since I was 16 years old. I was admitted in the hospital due to vomiting as the pain was too much! They discovered I had this ulcer however, it is almost 10 years later and I still go to bed afraid that I am going to wake up from the pain. I have tried to change my diet and been through an ample amount of testing to try and figure it out. At times I am up over 8 hours with the excruciating pain and I don't know what to do to make it stop.
I do not have any pain medication for this or have a remedy that always works. Does anyone have suggestions?
It is nice to find people that experience this too.

My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
I have doing a lot of reading that cabbage juice helps heal ulcers and is what they used back in the day before PPI's were around. I am going to give it a whirl. They say nature has the cure for everything. I also read raw organic honey is very soothing and so I tried it and it is. It also can promote healing. I also read coconut oil does the same. So swallowing a couple of teaspoons of Organic Extra Virgin coconut oil a couple times of day may help has well.
