Thanks for follow up. We should differentiate-gastritis, ulcer, gastro-esophageal reflux disease.The cause of constipation can be high acidity. Drink almagel 1 tablespoon 3times after 1 hour before meal 10 days. Flax seeds before meal.Charcoal 3tab 1 time before night 5days. You should check bloodtest for hemoglobin, Ig A,G to Helicobacter pylori. Then if you will receive positive H.pylori then drink vismute subcytrate,amoxicilline and metronidazole. In addition you can do x-ray of stomach and gastroduodenoscopy
Best regards
