What did she do to me?! - Digestive Disorders Message Board

Im sure a lot of you are familar with me since I have been here since like July or something. Recently however, through October, November, and 1st parts of Dec. I was able to control my diet and had hardly no episodes of my nausea problems. On Dec. 17 I had an edoscopy done that revealed inflammation in esophogus and stomach revealing GERD and Acid Reflux. Ever since then I have had nothing but problems. Maybe one or two days of feing semi-ok. Especially lately, it is pretty bad at night time, maybe because of the anticipation of having to go to bed. For some reason, days are not nearly as bad as nights. The nausea can get really bad at night and tonight i have had some short stabbing pains all over my stomach. i am not eating very well at all and now have dropped from a near 110lbs last year to a nearly just 100lbs. This cannot be very healthy for a 17yr old teenager who is supposed to be enjoying her teenage years and final year of hs, not worrying about when I am going to get sick, or if I can eat out Sunday with my friends, or making sure I am eating something healthy or getting up in time in the morning cause i had been up till 3AM. As many can tell i am starting to feel really sorry for myself

. Any suggestions on how ot feel better would be great. I have tried, excerising, Axid(Nizatidine), Calcium, Acidophillus, and B COmplex vitamins, cutting out dairy, caffeine, ect.

Try SAM-E, it wont help your stomach, but it is a great all natural anti-Depresant. Available everywhere, eveny safeway. And it works. I too have had massive digestive troubles. My Dr. prescribes Prozac to help relieve the anxiety. I choose a natural way instead and refused to take the Prozac.
Making the minid feel better does help overall. Try it.

I found a product called Digestive Support at [removed] it contails all natural ingredients like slippery elm, ginger, marshmallow root, etc. It has helped my stomach greatly. I just orderd 2 more bottles of it. It is the closest thing to a miracle cure I have found.
