Hi,I am Dr. Subhankar Chakraborty (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My wife is suffering from severe acidity, when she gets up in the night her stomach will have acid, then she will eat some fruits and get back to bed. This has become a regular incident. Day time also she develops acidity.She will develop hunger one hour after a meal. She is 49,she is also in the pre- menopause stage. We consulted many doctors and nobody could cure it.Basically she is a nervous type with a lot of anxiety. Kindly suggest a solution
The symptoms of your wife seem to be related to anxiety. Anxiety can increase the production of acidity in the stomach. I recommend using over the counter option like Omeprazole three tablets a say. I also recommend treating anxiety.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
