Summer gastritis flare up

Against_the_current profile image

Hey, i think it might be psychosomatic but recently i left my abusive home and went to live alone. I wondered why i hadn't lived alone earlier. Then i found out. Terrible acid reflux. Morning sickness. I wake up and my stomach is on tire, my esophagus too. I take famotidin and anti-acids. When i stay hungry i don't vomit but the acids are stronger. Just found out my ex is moving to Canada and i puked. I can eat only greek yogurt. I don't have a kitchen and energy to cook myself the diet for gastritis. I'm scared to sleep and eat now. I'm so tired, it's insane. I don't feel hungry but my stomach feels full of acids when I don't eat and i feel low and dizzy.

you need to get to a doctor. It can only get worse if not treated. An empty stomach is a recipe for disaster. You need to put something/anything in it every 2 to 3 hours. I do the dry toast most of the time. Oatmeal is good too. You might have h-pylori that needs antibiotics. Acute gastritis (which is inflammation of the stomach lining) can turn into chronic gastritis if not fixed. You are malnourished so then you will get dizzy. Ever try those ensure drinks? See if you can tolerate those. My go to is I take a sweet potatoe, peel it and boil it. Keep the water it boiled in and purée it. Makes a soup that can be used all day long when not hungry, just sip this. Stress is a real thing. You;ve been through a trauma and need some peace of mind. I hope /pray you get better.
