Hello,
Welcome to Health Care Magic.
Thanks for writing.
I am Dr.Saddiq-ul-Abidin. I have read your question completely, I understand your concern and will try to help you in best way possible.
I am sorry to know about your pains though its a pleasure to be told that you have been doing fine since your major surgery, You are concerned about your
pancreas i will tell you some indications of pancreatic pains.
1) It is in centre of chest.
2) Mostly referred to back.
3)
Vomiting and
retching are severe.
4) patients likes to sit up if lies down pain gets worsened.
I hope this must have cleared your mind about pancreatic pain. Your pain looks like simple stomach ache which can be controlled easily by following suggestions.
1) Avoid bitter sour food.
2) Avoid fizzy, sour, caffeinated drinks, , don't take tea or coffee at all.
3) Avoid
smoking and alcohol if you use them.
4) Increase fibre content in your food strictly avoid junk, use whole wheat products , you can even use
fibre supplements (organic ones)
5) Eat red and white meat less for some days.
6) Reduce weight if you have more weight than you should.
7) Don't fall asleep or lie down immediately after dinner. have a 15-20 mins walk.
Then we come to meds,
1) You can use antacids over the counter for quick relieve like syrup
Gaviscon.
2) I would prescribe my patient with
Omeprazole or any other PPI they really help.
3) Then my patients responded really well to prokinetics like motillium.
4) I would also ask my patients to take zantac in night if they took omerpazole in morning to add the effect.
If still things don't get better in a week or so, get in touch with your doctor about the problem you might have been facing.
I hope this answered your question.If you have more queries I am happy to answer.Otherwise rate and close the discussion
Regrads.
