I just got diagnosed with one (or more?) today. my doctor precribed me Nexium.

too much stress, not eating right.


just fix not eating right and you'll be ok. takes a couple months. 4 max

eww i tried a lot of medicines. i can't remember the one i took that worked. but it wasn't nexium. it was something really random. but after i found the right one it got better. until this semester when i got stressed out again

yeah this really sucks

I had ulcers off and on for years, with some pretty severe acid reflux.

Gluten free low fat diet has cured me, but at least try the low fat, sugar, caffeine, preservative thing. Yeah, that makes up 99.5% of the average college student's diet but the new diet will help with weight and energy as well.

i shall try that too, for i have acid reflux like a mo fo. i take prilosec

so does this shit not go away? am i like diseased for life now?

my grandma insists alcohol has everything to do with it but is that true?

^^^^^ Zantac Perhaps?

Zantac is old school

and folks who went to school for this know that PPIs are the way to go now

nexium is a PPI proton pump inhibitor, blocks some of the acid production


and this folks is why i ranted in here: message_topic.aspx?topic=500103

[Edited on December 21, 2007 at 5:46 AM. Reason : too early in the morning - off to work now to give PPIs to ICU patients]
