Have you given up drinking yet? If you continue to drink you will have more to worry about than getting just gastritis and toilet issues !

Back on day two now

What you are talking about here is the physical effects of your situation. Before anything is done you really are going to need to look at the mental situation too.

You are drinking my friend for a reason. You need to understand why, this has now become an addiction for you and this addiction is killing your body. Your going to have to sort out both the mental and physical problems together. Stopping drinking without understand or resolving the reason WHY, may well be doomed to failure.

To try and treat the physical side of your health issues without resolving the mental aspect may well be a waste of time and money. Sadly it does happen when a person discovers that they have end stage liver disease, but keep on drinking.

Your body is sending out warning signals and telling you enough is enough. This may well be your wake up call, so please take heed.

Alcohol causes gastritis, pancreatitis, cirrhosis, inflammatory bowl disease tons of medical conditions. Alcohol in itself causes DNA change and mutation. It can destroy the lining of the stomach, which leads to chronic gastritis. Sometimes, your body will heal with succession from alcohol, sometimes the damage is too far gone. If they want more blood work, then something is probably high, AST and ALT. A GGT test is also very sensitive to alcoholic liver damage.
