hi i have posted in here before but am feeling a little stuck at the moment. for past 5 years suffered with anxiety, flared up 8 months ago due to a blood test showing low iron. put on iron tablets and 3 months later fine! my dad found out he had cancer this way so think i just started to panic! have had digestive problems for a while and flared up bad november last year where i found out i had helicobactor. more anxiety over the meds and feeling so ill. lost 1 stone in a few weeks. had more bloods in lanuary and all fine and did treatmentfor helicobactor but still not feeling great. so doctor agreed to do endoscopy! that cane back fine , i had convinced myself for years i had stomach cancer !! just some alight gastritis. started probiotics and aloe vera at night and omega 3 fish oils and felt better for fee days but last week has been crap! pain in my stomach under my ribs now and again. feeling nauseous alot and light headed quite a bit. eatting is fine but feel more dizzy after food and as the day goes on seem to feel worst. pain and burning now in my upper back in left and right side. doctor has put me back on omeprazole but think they make me feel worst. burping alot again and loudly. pain in my lower tummy on and off too. i do smoke but try to eat healthily. have weetabix for breakfast. no fizzy drinks or juices and one devaf coffee. i just feel so rubbish and i dont know why?? surely as i have just done my endoscopy 3 weeks ago nothi g sinister is going on in there ? is this after effects of anxiety or i just dont know what else... :(
Could be a gastritis flare up due to anxiety and food triggers. Try a food diary.
