I have been having stomach problems for the last year or so. last week i had chest burning but that started after working out two days in a row. the stomach problems im not sure if thats associated with the chest burning or not. my doctor did an ekg, chest xrays and blood work and all were fine. for the last couple of days ive had a fullness in my stomach, bloating, belching and cant sleep at night. what else could it be?
Brief Answer:
suffering from reflux and gastritis
Detailed Answer:
Hi Mam,
Welcome to HealthcareMagic.
I read your query and understand your concern. Your symptoms suggest you are suffering from reflux oesphagitis with gastritis.
To confirm this you need to get endoscopy(tube passed through mouth). Other test which you have got done will be normal.
The treatment includes
-acid reducer like pantoprazole with levosulpiride combination. You are taking already lansoprazole but it is not available with levosulpiride combination. So switch to this combination after consulting your doctor.
-don't sleep immediately after eating. Walk for 15mins.
-avoid tea, coffee, alcohol, chocolates etc.
-avoid eating till stomach is full .
-while sleeping don't lie flat. Make head up then the body.
Hope I have answered your query. If any further queries are there I would love to help.
Regards
Dr.Deepika Patil
