Hi sorry for another annoying post. :(
Well as mentioned before, I've had an indigestion/hyperacidity thing which lasted for at least 6 weeks. This started out early in June, I believe. It's that type of hallow/gnawing feeling you get after you eat. It goes away immediately once I eat. Also, I've had EXCESSIVE BURPING and softer stools.
After 6 weeks of agony, I had the guts to go to a gastroenterlogist. He told me that my indigestion was probably caused by stress and my very very poor eating habits. He prescribed me two weeks worth of 40mg omeprazole. After two weeks, I began to slowly feel better. I literally couldn't believe it because at first I didn't have faith in the meds. After about 10 days of taking the meds, the indigestion and excessive burping went away completely. The relief lasted for nearly a month. Whew. I kept my diet on track and tried to avoid worries as much as possible
However, as someone with HA, I found myself obsessing over other things (arrrgh!). Just 4 nights ago, I found myself completely obsessed and worried about another thing in my body. And as soon after I ate dinner, the indigestion and excessive burping came back! :weep: This went on until today.
Although I think it is important to take note that the indigestion/excessive burping isn't as worse as before. I can only slightly feel it but it's definitely there! :weep: The sensation I get is more of a slight "sour stomach" now. Sigh. :(
Any words of reassurance please? :weep:
