Sorry brother, I can relate because someone around had a similar chronic case. Ulcer is mostly getting chronic as a result of the intestinal wall being very acidic. A solution I can recommend is for you to consume foods that are alkaline in nature. More of vegetables and fruits. But please avoid oranges and pineapples. But you can also use *Edmark Splina* for a better result. God will heal you completely. Using drugs will only create more effects of the side effects |

bellezza:The argument of low or high acid seems not settled in medical literature. You said you thought you had it? |

Finelinks:If u're really sure it's ulcer, you can get rid of it with unripe banana - at least one, each night before bed for 2 - 3 wks. Banana forms tiny films that coat the endometria wall. Also, unripe banana has anti-bacterial effects. I got rid of mine that way. |

Finelinks:my brother suffered severe ulcer for 4 to 5 years if I could remember. you need to avoid so many things such as groundnut oil (fry and cook with red oil), beer, all kinds of hard drinks and soft drinks(take only amstel), apple, too much pepper, fat food and meats, avoid beverages(take tea with only milk)avoid sugar, sweet fruits such as orange (if you must eat fruit eat chidimma...sorry! Cucumber, eat more of unripe plantain, it helps in healing the wounds Initially, it wouldn't be easy avoiding all these, but if you succeed with time you will get OK as long as you are taking the right and proper medication for it. my brother's ulcer was so severe he couldn't sleep all the time. I wish you well man. 2 Likes |

The pains can be excruciating, only few people understand.... In those bad moments, try original yogurt, it will help relieve the pain before you can take in solid food. If you can't afford it, drink pap, wait a little and eat. Go for tests to find out exactly the type of ulcer you have, it will help in knowing the treatment that you actually need. Some needs surgery, I hope yours have not gotten to that. What I discovered that works long term is lifestyle change. Desists from the following: food with too much pepper, hot meals, any carbonated drink (stick to water, yogurt for now), alcohol specifically is a NO, cigarette, unnecessary FASTING ( you can't afford it). If you must eat beans, cook it yourself, it must be properly cooked. - You MUST eat regularly in small proportions, eat in between meals, always have things like biscuit (I recommend crackers). - Breakfast is a MUST and should be done early. - As much as possible, reduce stress and try to relax. - If you can afford it, reduce "mamaput" cook your meals or have someone cook for you. - You must not hold your FART, as embarrassing as it can be, release at will! - Study your self, those food or activities that aggravate the pains, desists from them. etc etc. Pumping yourself with antacid is just to relieve the pain, it does not necessarily heal the ulcer. |

I have managed peptic ulcer for over 10 years. It was very bad at a point but i got better when I visited a Gastro intestinal tract consultant at the general hospital in Lagos. 1. Avoid peppery food 2. Avoid Spicy food 3. Avoid fried foods 4. Avoid oranges, Apple's Eric basically anything acidic. You have more than enough acid in your stomach already. 5. Avoid carbonated drinks or alcoholic drinks e.g. coke, malt Etc. Take water or zobo Etc. 6. Eat little portions at a time and eat about 5 times a day. ensure you have something to eat at all times 7. You may wan to avoid beans because of heartburn. For drugs...i used different combinations from omeprazole and meteronidazole..unsure of the sppelling(Flagyl) with various antacids Etc.. but i only felt relieved when the doctor prescribed Nexium Esomeprazole..i take 20mg 2x daily and Gascol..i had the option of taking gaviscon which i I had used before but i stuck with Gascol because it works well for me. I also had to do an endoscopy to be sure of.what i was dealing with. 3 years after this treatment, i hardly take my drugs except for days when i eat late or probably took oranges. Stress also aggravates the pain...so you need to manage your stress level. Cold yoghurt gives me relief Hope this helps! 3 Likes 1 Share |

Sorry to learn about your condition. Really hard to pin-point the root cause of these symptoms sometimes. I would advise against eating unripe bananas/plaintain though...because it is very hard to digest and may worsen the indigestion you currently experience. They could cause a lot of gas and may increase bloating see article below: https://www.livestrong.com/article/527881-are-green-bananas-better-for-you/ I would not want to suggest any option that would hurt your pocket since you have spent so much so far. The one thing I can suggest is purchasing castor oil and consuming like 2 teaspoons early in the morning only, on an empty stomach. Please do not take castor oil at night, at all! Try it for one week and see the impact. Prolonged use is not suggested. What castor oil does is to help clear up your bowels, so be sure to be in a place where a toilet is available. Further, it helps clean up the lungs and liver, and could help clear up bacteria that give off gas constantly and cause bloating. I really hope this helps...if no significant improvement is noticed after a week, I'd advise you discontinue. Cheers bud! |

@Finelinks. I have the exact symptoms you listed. How did you know you've ulcer? Who confirmed this? Mine started this year.. and it hasn't been easy. I met a gastroenterologist and did series of tests.Helicobacter pylori was not detected. I did endoscopy/biopsy; this confirmed I had esophagitis i.e reflux acid. I was given omeprazole pills. My symptoms subsided for awhile, I then stopped taking it. After a month, it came back and in a very aggressive way. It affected me so much that I stopped going to work. I then did a colonoscopy/biopsy to check my colon and so forth, and ultrasound to check my organs. Everything was fine. The gastroenterologist now gave me strong dosage of pantoprazole. So far.. my stomach pains has stopped but I've now just developed a little heartburn. I feel way better now. 1 Like |

Fruits, vegetables, herbal plants and mushrooms are natural antidotes to stomach acidity. Alkaline supplements had been established to give great relief.

Magnifico2000:that was why I said it wouldn't be easy to avoid them but he has to try. it is possible. when his wife is cooking food for the house let her separate or remove his potion to another pot that will serve him for some time. my mother tried so much to make sure that my brother avoided the avoidable. I forgot to add groundnut. |
