Good morning, HealthUnlocked,

For a long time I have had or at least, I thought I had ulcers, but as I have just been discharged from hospital, was found with Hernia and not Ulcers as earlier stated, was told by another Practitioner that I had Ulcers. I cannot take any anti inflammatory tablets etc. Has anyone been in this form as can be very painful.

Gertrude Millar.
