Stomach Acid/ Anne/ Question...

[Guest guest]

Hi all and Anne, sorry this is off subject, but....

Just wanted to say 'thanks' for that post about stomach acid, you explained

it very clearly. Generally it's the opposite of what we normally think

right? I have a question if I may.

I was recently dianosed with Severe gastritis, and severe inflammation of

the Duodenum...(with a scope and anesthesia) it's supposedly too much

stomach acid, though I feel no burning or reflux. I feel pulsing pain,(not

burning) in the solar plexes area, and has no connection with eating. At

first I thought it was heart, but that's ok.

They did a biopsy and it shows NO H-Pylori bacteria. Of course they gave

me Prilosec, I took one pill and it's left such a horrible bitter metallic

taste in my mouth that I can't get rid of and haven't touched it since.

(not sure if it's the Prilosec, anesthesia, or the disturbance of the

stomach acid) but it's been 2 months and it's still there, *sigh*... Do you

think I have too much stomach acid or is it not enough... this is very

confusing to me.

Thanks, Warmest regards , Dee~
