View Full Version : Can Burning stomach be anxiety
Hello
Can anxiety cause burning stomach even tho im on 20mg of omeprezole each day for the last 4 weeks????
Im also on 50mg sertaline and 3 x peppermint tablets for ibs
Ive had the tests for ulcers etc 3 months ago which were negative
Im desperate for advice as i feel its taking over my life
Thank you for looking
Please any help would be helpful im such a worrier
Absolutely! Stress and anxiety can exasperate acid stomach/GERD and that, even with the PPI is the most likely cause. Keep a food diary to determine which foods may be making things worse and make diet modifications accordingly.
My wife has acid issues as do I and we've gone to the FODMAP diet and it's been good for us. Worth a peek.
Positive thoughts
Anxiety can contribute to burning stomach and so can peppermint. Have you been tested for H. pylori infection?
To help with IBS, try to learn which foods to avoid. I also suggest you try a low-FODMAP diet.
Yeah i got blood test 3 months ago and it came out negative
Its feels like burning/itching inside stomach/belly
Sometimes burns throat but im just fed up of it
Many thanks
If it burns in the throat it's probably heartburn due to acid reflux from the stomach. There are lists of foods that aggravate reflux available online.

Absolutely!
For 6 months, I had non stop burping. Like all day long! It felt like there was a bundle of gas at the top of my stomach that just couldn't come out.
And that would often go paired with acid reflux.
Even now, the moment I feel anxious I start burping. Our digestive system is one of the worst affected by anxiety. And that comes in all forms
Thank you for the information
I felt i was going mad.
For some reason i have its a hiatus hernia in my head which i cant shift
