Need support and encouragement. I’ve suffered with my gastric issues for 14 years. I’ve had a flare up that’s lasted two weeks and I’m done. I’m going back to a doctor for MORE tests but I’m putting my foot down and saying we’re testing for everything until I have answers. I don’t care about cost, down time, surgery etc. i want this battle to be over. I wanna live like a normal person. I can’t do this anymore. I’m so tired. I really hope I get answers.
You go! Hell yeah. Thats the kind of attitude to have. Getting fed up gets shit done! I feel you. It's year 14 of my issues too. Stabbing ice pick feeling, throwing up after drinking water, ulcers, bleeding, constant bloating, pressure. I finally had enough and did more internet research by myself than I could get from any doctor! Fuck 'em. I stopped eating meat and dairy and started taking Miralax, Prilosec, and heavy duty probiotics. Im started to feel better a little at a time but still have those days, ya know?
P.s. When I have sudden stomaches/attacks I take 2 peppermint pills (crushed leaves and oil) and it'll usually take the edge off in about 30 minutes.
