Feeling bad

[scooby07]

I'm not doing good at moment my bad belly came back yesterday which feels like a rubber band around my stomach which I been told is acid reflux due to my anxiety but it seems to be staying all the time now before it was just coming when I got worked up I wake up everymorning with the dread feeling which isn't good as I have to go work I thought I was getting through this and now it's back bad again do u think some of it is the tablets I only been on them nearly 2 weeks sertraline I just want to get on with life someone tell me its gonna be ok

You can make it right.

For sure and anxiety will attack our gut.......try a tsp of baking soda in a glass of water to counter the acid. Sit and take deep slow breaths making your exhale 2x as long as the inhale. Really helps me.

It is acid reflux. My mom has the same rubber band feeling. She switched acid reflux meds and got better quickly. She had so much testing and an endoscopy.... but all for nothing. Just needed to switch meds. Are you on reflux meds?

I am on lansoprazole and I had a stool sample done that said there was no germs inside but I've seen 3 doctors who said it was acid reflux made worse because my anxiety was so bad

My mom had to try several different meds to find best one for her. Do you want me to ask her what med?
