I have been told that I have gastritis. I have been scoped twice, had all the tests for reflux (didn't show any significant reflux),was tested for hpylori (negative), had my gall bladder checked and changed my diet ( no caffiene, chocolate, citrus, tomatos, diary, no alcohol). I eat soft foods and drink ginger tea and carrot juice. I have been on Nexium for about 2 months. Still not much better. Only taking Nexium once a day, one hour before dinner.
How long before I feel better? Is the Nexium the wrong drug? Should I get food sensitivity testing (really expensive and not covered by insurance)?
I have been taking a multi vitamin, zinc, vitamin e, vitiman c, extra vitamin a, DGL, vitiman B12.
Really need advice...or opinions. I have an appt. with my doc on 10/29. Thinking about getting a second opinion. I really want to feel better.
