Chronic gastritis
Woken-up at 3am almost all the time feeling hungry with mild stomach pain on left side.Similar pain an hour or so before meal time.
Occasional acid reflux while jogging or cycling.
Started in may 2003 while preparing training for a cycling race. Endoscope then confirmed H pylori. Gastric erosion but no ulcer.Antibiotic taken.
Have been on pantoprazol-controloc 40mg on and off since then.
Feel worse towards the end of 2nd of 3rd week when not taking pantoprazol.
Felt better (stomach wise)when pantoprazol is resumed but with poor sleep.
Felt better when travelling overseas for 3 weeks
with no pantoprazol.
Always go to bed early before 10pm but woken once or twice with stomach pain as described above.
Sensitive to noise especially wile resting or sleeping. sensitive to negative criticism.
Wife commented my mood can swing.Feel upset that I cannot train ( cycling & running)and compete as much as before May 2003.
Milk tends to upset the stomach. Stopped taking coffee,tea,choclate, spicy food almost a year now.
Previous illness in addition to HPylori in May 2003 ,given Apolovastatin in Sept 03 to lower my LDL. which I had to stop due to muscle pain and headache.
Antibiotics given for Fever in Feb 04. Antibiotics given for UTI in mar 04 after a cycling expedition.This followed by a rise in PSA from 0.5 to 10ug/L 2days after the expedition.PSA was 1.4 ug/L in July. 3 visits to Urologist with scan done concluded OK.
Tried Homeopathy in Aug 04 ( 3 weeks ago)for curing my stomach pain and to be independent of pantoprazol.
Was give Arsenic ... and Mer solubilis.Felt better in the stomach for 2 weeks but pain came back. did another endoscope .Diagnosed chronic gastritis.
2nd visit to Homeopathy given Silica... and NuxVormi Noimprovement in stomach and tingling feeling in hands and feet with some numbness in toes
can be felt now.I am also back on pantoprazol.
Pleasehelp.

do you have a strong liking fro eating sweets?
are you a constant worrier i.e. always anticipating the worst out come of events to which you are connected?
are you troubled by flatulence ?
Your replies will help in the analysis.

If you dont have breathing problem and skin out breaks then Arsenic is out for you.
Since you dont have gum problems, Merc. Sol. is out for you again,
hence it has to be a different medicine.
give me some more symptoms, so that I can zero down on the right medicine for you.
Medical history of your parents, past illness in child hood or adult hood etc.

please explain what is meant by "..acidic stomach can be felt..." what does this actually feel like?please describe
♡ John Stanton last decade
There was no pain during that overseas travel.
The pain otherwise would have been like the
eroded stomach lining is rubbing against each other.Like as if the stomach lining is being stung by a bee!
The feeling of acidic stomach is like feeling hot water has just entered an empty stomach which churning making noises.If no action taken like taking antiacid or food the feeling of bee stung will follow.
