just had endoscopy and was told i have gastritis. but i'm already on a prescription acid blocker. anyone else have this happen?

Yes! They put me on Nexium, then Prilosec. I also modified my diet, did not eat onions, chocolate, soda pop, red meat, etc, etc. I hated the mild nausea, the bloat feeling.

Nothing really helped until I reduced my stress and modified my diet and REALLY stuck with it. O was told when we are stressed the body produces MORE gastric juices, hence why many feel they are nauseous or have an upset stomach. Stress reduction, relaxation techniques and diet I beleive from my experience can turn this conidtion around. It did for me.

Hope you feel better!

thank you so much for the reply! i thought i was the only one. yes mild nausea and bloat! exactly! it's made me half crazy. what you said makes sense. red meat didn't think of that one. I just started back on the attacking anxiety program and i'll work on my diet and like you said stick to it. Anyway thanks so much for writing i have been feeling so down about it. Thanks!

hi schnauzermom. in case you happen to see this...i put up a new post today...if you feel like it. take a look. just looking for what you ate to heal your gastritis. how long did the mild nausea last for you? i think in and of itself is giving me anxiety...anyway take care.
