GASTRITIS....ACID REFLUX....CAN BE VERY DANGEROUS

After following what my doctor has told me, I am getting better. No caffeine, no spicy foods, no acidic foods, no dairy, no red meat, no alcohol, and no fatty foods...oh and DO NOT over eat...no stuffing myself.

I had food poisoning a couple months back that accelerated this problem. I had some acid reflux, but never paid much attention to it...this has been going on for over a year...many times in the night I would wake up with acid in my lunges and on a couple occasions, I rolled over and puked. If I would have treated this in the beginning when the signs were there, I am sure I would not be to this stage of it.

Well now that I have been diagnosed with this, I am very much paying attention. I would feel very bloated after eating, and then the acid burps would start...on a couple occasions, I barfed my brains out in the middle of the night. I still burp like crazy after a CLEAN meal, but the acid is gone.

STOMACH CANCER: this can happen when gastritis becomes chronic...I am NOT going to get to that point, so I am following what the doctor said, and even what Phil and I chatted about. He is a very very very smart guy...the only protein I am eating and drinking now comes from chicken and LBAs. The rest of the day is filled with hunger (because I am use to eating my ass off), and veggies, some whole grain pasta, sushi every now and then (NO wasabi or soy sauce), and none acidic fruits....hey maybe I will become shredded after all this??

I have gone from 253 to 238 but hey I feel better.

thanks for the thread

man i am plagued too..........i cant eat granola bars, italian food, mexican food, asian food, nothin

i have to stick to plain PBJs, turkey, chicken breast,

cant have pepperoncinis hell no


i cant even do situps or cardio sometimes becuase i am burping so much shit up its horrible

through all my suffereing i have found PAPAYA extract is the strongest natural digestive enzyme, and probiotic acidopholus...i take both religiously

i am sensitive to certian vitamins/minerals too

i would live on pepcid AC for a while then i got scared cuz i had to use it everyday

papaya works GREAT. you can never get enough either........have one before every meal!!!! or snack even and they taste great tons of antioxidants and free radicals

the fruit is the BEST....tabs are good too thank me later bro

i guess bulking is out of question for people like us???
bump for ANY help please guys if you know any cures let us know!!!!

 

[Steak Helmet]

I too am taking PAPAYA extract...good stuff...taken after every meal or after I drink my LBAs.

DO NOT OVER EAT!!!!

eat 10 small meals if you have to, but do not stress out your gut by over eating.

im surprised @ the dairy thing...milk helps me a TON, plain nonfat yogurt too!!!

i can eat chicken salads all day brother, I love sirachi sauce and it sucks i cant use it.........i love hotsauce too

i NEver had Heartburn or acid refulx until i started taking a lot of c17aa orals......going overboard with it

bro please try the probiotic acidopholus too, you have to keep it refridgerated it works great

i noticed that flax oil helps too........liquid flax or liquid cLa

bro if you are absoultely dying and for some reason you cant stop the heartburn reach for a 7up or a ginger ale

i HATE pop.......but that will cure you up real quick........7up + saltine crackers is best cure for food poisoning too, only thing u can hold down...

Hey guys, I use to get gerd so bad I couldn't breath.
Tried the prevacid but it didn't agree with me. My dr
was concerned because i had signs of barretts disease
in my esophgas. So I had a procedure done called Nissen
Fundoplacation. It was laparoscopic, one night in the hospital
and today, I can eat anything. You might want to look into it.

My Father suffered with this and contracted cancer at 43 yrs of age,
three quaters of his stomach was removed but it still spread to his
esophagus. Tumor grew at a very slow rate cutting off his breathing
I won't go any further but my father died in a very agonizing way.
Sorry but still bothers me to this day.
Bottom line, Stomach cancer is a very serious condition and milk is one of the worst things because the calcium will cause the stomach to secret more acid to sort of even things out generally speaking. I suffer with this myself and with no health insurance take a home made contraption bakingsoda and water, not a good idea. Do what ever the doc tells ya cause. this is something not to be fulling around with.

Steak, I hate to hear this but glad you quickly got to the bottom of it. Is a super clean diet the only treatment to control this? Or they want to use medication as well?

 

[hotttsauce]

If changing your diet doesn't help ask your PTP about Protonix 40mg

no dairy

No PASTEURIZED dairy, or no dairy at all?

Raw milk containing essential enzymes, vitamins, etc... that pasteurization kills, you may on the contrary benefit from drinking it or eating non-transformed yogurts or cheese.

Goat or ewe milk based products may even be digested better.

Acid reflux made me suffer as hell for a long time .. even red meat was a big no no for me til I the doc prescribed me a medicine named "lanzor", this is lansoprazole

it changed my life, in 2-3 days the pain was gone

I started by taking it 1xday then 3x week and now I takeone when I feel that acid reflux are threatening again

it works well, u should give it a try if u have it available in USA

By far the best cure for GERD is organic apple cider vinegar. About 99.5% of cases are cured within a week, most in a day or 2. 2 tablespoons in 4oz water upon waking every morning. It will also make your joints better over time.

It has to do with unloading the liver.

Right now no antibiotics...there is a bacteria you can get. I think it is H. Something

Just on some Prevacid to help heal the damage, and some antacids to keep the acid down.

The reason NO dairy for me is due to being semi-lactose intolerant...my bad fellas I should have made that clear. The added stress on the stomach is not good right now.

As far as a clean diet, I would say yes...a cleaner diet will help heal things faster...and keep the stress off the stomach.

Again that should not be the only reason to cut dairy (milk) from
your diet with your condition. Milk is instant relief but will make
matters worst. It's a myth I know cause this condition runs in my family

Thanks. Sadly most will stay with the very harmful pharmaceuticals and anti-acids instead of this very healthy natural cure.

I could not imagine milk would help one bit.

The best thing to do is change your eating habits. try it for 2 months and see how much better you feel.

In the past couple of years I also seemed to have developed acid reflux. Some of the things I have determined about it are:
1) Happens mostly when on cycle and hardly ever when off
2) Orals and especially dbol correspond to more frequent bouts - why I stick to winny and anavar mostly for orals these days
3) Eating a large meal before bed is a BAD IDEA
4) Lying on stomach when sleeping after a big meal while late on a cycle is just asking for an attack

About 4-5 times in the past couple of years at night I have vomited slightly just up the back of my throat which causes my windpipe to spasm. I wake up completely unable to breath for a minute or two which seems like 10 minutes and is the most frightening experience you could ever imagine. My windpipe is completely closed while I gasp for air and panic.

Don't know if anyone else has had this happen but I am convinced it is a side effect of gear both directly and indirectly.
