Sorry but my anxiety levels are creeping upwards again.
Quick history: Have had a prolonged attack of gastritis since new year. Had endoscopy 3 weeks ago and it showed gastritis and a small bleed. Small bleed has stopped now. No ulcer or h. pylori. Commenced on omeprazole 40mg daily.
I have improved but still feel 'not right'. Nausea and gagging feeling persists every morning. Tummy feels fragile on and off. Feeling of fullness and episodes of burping. Appetite varies, although I'm careful to eat small amounts regularly. Some parts of the day I feel absolutely fine and then suddenly the symptoms return with a vengeance.
Can anyone relate to this? Do you think my anxiety could produce such strong physical sensations like nausea. I'm not convinced. I feel like there is something medically wrong with me but endoscopy findings were relatively unremarkable, if you see what I mean.
Thanks for reading.
