Sickness stomach acid

[Josepht110]

I have been sick daily my gp gave me lanseprozime for anti acid 30ml in the morning and 30ml at night. I am now finding that I am sick when I take the night time one . It has also not stoppeD my sickness it happens when I move about

My stomach seems to tighten

Has anyone had similar symptoms

I am going to ask for antibiotics

I feel I may have h polly ?!

Seems like dmilsr symptoms

Of course everything is in lockdown

I managed to get a ct scan from the bowel cancer 14 day unit but all they said was I was cancer free and they were taking me off the list. Would they be able to see anything on the scan or is this all they look for ?

Hi, if medication has not helped them you need to discuss this with your GP.

H pylori can be tested for, and treated of present.

I have no idea what else would have been looked for on cancer scan, but glad your results came back clear xxx

Thank you

I thought taking antibiotics would clear many Gastro problems !

Don’t feel like going out !!

Well I thought a ct scan would also check some organs the stomach osephic etc

Try taking only your morning dose for a few days. I can’t take it on a full stomach and makes me feel sick. But just taking a morning dose on an empty stomach does seem to do do the trick for me

Yes dead going to do that but my stomach acid is really bad

[Josepht110 in reply to Hidden]

Thank you , will try and see if 1 doze works

My stomach acid seems better today , was not sick yet !

I use bicarbonate of soda in water that I filter through a kinetic water jug so it's alkaline, and one can drink if throughout the day and before going to bed, maybe a quarter of a teaspoon in a glass of water a few times a day works for me, acid reflux has gone, also I used to have irritable bowel syndrome, so I started adding two heaped teaspoonfuls of L- glutamine to my morning nutribullet mix and after about 6 months it calmed it down and has now gone altogether. on top of this I did change my diet to eating less acid producing foods, which seems to help. hope this is useful.

Yes thank you for replying, just worried if the anti acids don’t work it maybe something else, have tried bicarbonate of soda seems to make me more sick !!

Don’t understand why I’m sick every day 🤢

I have really bad acid reflux.. Maybe look at your diet for triggers.. I can't touch spicy or fried foods, I drink lots of milk too. I take one pantoprazole in the morning which really helps.

[Crocheterloveslife in reply to Budgielady]

Just a little milk, not lots! Drinking lots of milk can cause yoyr stomach to produce more acid! Temporary help maybe but ongoing it exacerbates the problem. Bicarb in water!

I get acid reflux & take Omeprazole every morning & most evenings on an empty stomach. When its really bad I have bicarb in a small glass of water - a level teaspoon. That ALWAYS works. Its extremely unlikely to be cancer but worrying wont help your stomach. Acid stomach is very common & more so as you get older. If changing how you take the pills ie on an empty stomachdoesnt help then discuss with doctor but bicarb is brilliant at dealing with your tummy and as said before you can drink a solution often during the day. The reaction with the acid causes a lovely big burp!! Lol! If you hate the taste add a little bit of your favourite squash. Not too much or it will reduce the alkaline level of the bicarb. I like blackcurrant or mixed fruit - makes a nice fizzy drink!

Thank you. Will start it again

You are supposed to take in on an empty stomach and hour before breakfast I suffer from acid reflux and if it gets bad take Gaviscon extra but not before 2 hours has lapsed from taking other tablet. Have also had H Pylori twice and there is a test for it so speak to your GP pleased your scan came back clear. Love & Hugs Xx
