Gastritis info

[Milley2]

Hi

Does gastritis always present pain ?

I have no pain

I was diagnosed gastritis in October last year after endoscopy

Prior I had hpylori treatment as bloods came back I had it Gone now through triple meds

I was still feeling sick mostly early hours 4am ish onwards would wake me then could not get back off to sleep

Was admitted hospital as family had enough as thus was and is daily

Had endoscopy and gastritis shown he said mild

Was given meds in hospital ppi ones

I did not feel better so nauseau worse

Released and I’ve not been right since

They then put me on gaviston etc

Still worse

Ppi in Dec again oh my that had me on the floor heaving etc and very poorly

Worse

So I stopped ppi 15 days ago

I do not smoke or drink

I follow a bland diet 5 small meals a day water to hydrate

So I’ve question also

I never actually have pain with it

I only have a tender upper ab feeling like a soreness above belly button below breast bone I guess

After eating my tummy hour later kinda fett egg is a bit raw in that upper and area ?

It’s defo gastritis as they showed me

But I assumed lots of pain

Whilst mines a sicky feeling same time every night

Will this ever go ?

My tummy gurgles after food

It never feels hungry

It never feels full

It’s like it’s stopped working

Before the ppi meds my tummy did not feel this way

Nauseaus same time every night 4 to 5 am

Then I can’t get back to sleep

Some neck pain also not sure if it’s related to gastritis inflammation can effect other areas in the body if tummy inflamed inside ?

And some ear ringing I’ve had that a while

And assumed h pylori a while which would have inflamed my tummy

Proberbly had fir around 6 years I guess without knowing

I’m trying so hard to heal naturally

Bland food

No irritants like meds etc

I don’t smoke I don’t drink

Hydrated with water

Exercise twice a day plus walks

Will this go

How long ?

If they said mild

Acute chronic ?

Mine can’t be acute as it’s lasting so long

So hpylori can cause chronic gastritis

I’m worried it will never go

Any ideas thoughts please

Also maybe the meds made me unwell as it reduced tummy acid

What if my tummy acid is low ?

How do you know

They say tummy heals by reducing the acid

Mine didn’t

I reacted badly

I have gastro app on the 15th soon

I wonder if they can tell high acid or low acid ? If there’s a test ?

If it’s low is this why my tum isn’t healing

Or how long

I’m pretty sure the treatment is similar

Naturally

Like

Bland food

Small meals x5 through out the day

No irritants

Exercise

Any ideas please

Sorry to kow your issues.

If no pain then possibly the acid strength/content is very low ish scale, my speculation. as no pain felt. Unless neural issues present.

Good you trying to help yourself by managing the lifestyle. keep working on that.

h pylori is sometimes very difficult to get rid of. has it been tested again to rule out its gone for sure?

Try probiotics to re-energise your good gut bacteria.

I will try to come back. Apologeis for the delay. How about your mental halth regards anxiety, stress etc?

I have been diagnosed with moderate Gastritis too. No pain just nausia in the morning and no appetite. I tried stopping Ppi but had nausia all the time so was put back on them. 40ml in the mornings now. Like you I wonder what now? How long do I stay on zppi for. No cause given why this started. I have also changed my diet and cut out caffeine
