Motility problems weren't bad enough, now inflamed stomach?

[Guest guest]

Hi,

Good morning. :-) Hope everyone is doing well this morning. Saturday

is always a day I look forward to how about everyone else? Although

the weather here is pretty gray this morning, yesterday was beautiful

with blue skies.

I actually was starting to feel a little return of a small amount of

energy yesterday after being able to successfully tolerate about 4

days of juices and non fat milk shakes. I was getting tired of the

same juices and shakes, and tried tomato juice yesterday and that

ended up being a mistake.

I seem to be having a new twist. Now not only am I having pain that

I was associating with my system struggling to move things along, but

I think I am having lining of the stomach problems. I started

feeling inflamation problems yesterday which any kind of stress or

upset is making worse. I am not sure how to address that.

Everything I put in my mouth after the tomato juice was making it

worse yesterday and having an empty stomach is making it worse. All

I can think of is to try gingerale instead of juices today and hope

it resolves quickly. I don't understand it because even a milk shake

made it worse yesterday, which you would think would be soothing. I

suppose I could try Maalox or something, but I hope that won't make

it worse.

Back to the drawing board.

:-)

Adam,

Tomatoes are highly acidic so it make sense that you would have a

problem with the tomato juice.

This is going to sound rather weird, but has anyone ever heard of adult

using baby formula? The reason I am asking is because when my daughter

was a baby, she had horrible projectile vomiting and the only thing she

could keep down was a powdered formula mixed with water called

nitramigen. We were told at the time that she most likely had a virus

that had attached the lining of the stomach and intestines. The

nitramigen is pre-digested and easier on the stomach. I'm sure it

wouldn't be complete nutrition for an adult, but it might be something

to consider trying until things have calmed down a bit. Just a thought.

I've been told that the calcium in milk stimulates stomach acid.

Thus milk is not recommended for ulcer patients, for example, though

I realize you do not have ulcers. No need to reply, Adam, just a

thought.

Ginger ale might be a good choice right now. I always use small pieces of

crystallized ginger to settle my stomach. It is amazing how such a small

pieces can make such a difference.

Cabbage juice helps a lot (1/2 cabbage, 1 carrot, and 2 celery sticks

in a juicer) to improve ulcers and preulcers. As much as the pain

can hurt (feels like a heart attack sometimes for me), they do

subside a bit, if you can avoid aspirin and aspirin-like products for

a while.

I've had an EGD, which found a gastric ulcer and many pre-ulcers. I

have another scheduled. I went on Prevacid which seems to help a

lot, pain is greatly reduced and I don't have to watch my diet. I

also drank 8 - 12 oz. of cabbage juice (as listed above) each day for

a week to reduce the pain.

I hate to say this, but if it bothers you that much, maybe you should

find a different gastro you feel free to call.

Take care,

RH

Hi RH,

Yes, I was just thinking of cabbage juice the other day. I have

tried that in the past and was helped by it. Thanks for the

reminder. I also haven't taken any medication except my synthroid

which I have to take since I was home from the hospital. I rarely

use aspirin or aspirin like products. Maybe once every two years.??

LOL I am not sure if the pain killer I had in the hospital had any

in it.

What is an EGD?
