RE: Coping with my health problems. Some ways I am dealing with it.
I'm wondering about the state of your good gut bacteria. Do you take a probiotic or eat probiotic foods? Eating some real (refrigerated) sauerkraut (like the Bubbies brand) could help out. Remember if you take antibiotics it will destroy the good bacteria, as will succralose/spenda sweetened products. Dealing with stress as you all mentioned is important of course. I would advise weaning off the PPI drugs as soon as you can. Swallowing a teaspoon or more of apple cider vinegar mixed with water before all or big meals will help also. I've found ginger soothes my stomach when it gets queasy too.
Thanks for the information. This is really helpful. I have had similar information before so some of it I already do.
I should try to eat more probiotic foods. I do take the PPI drugs. But I try to take them as little as possible. I already take ginger regulary and I take the aloe vera. Because of that I don't need the PPI drugs as much anymore, maybe only once a week or once every 2 weeks. Unless it gets really bad then I need it a bit more often. Getting rid of my dependence on these drugs is one of my main priorities. The apple cider I have read about before but I have not tried it yet. I will also take a look at that.
