worried

I have been diagnosed with gastritis, diverticulitis and erosive gastritis in the past.  I was fine for years  until  a burning sensation around my waist and back appeared in the last few days. It´s unbearable, to say the least. I take Atenolol-50 to control blood pressure,I´m 66,  and Ecotrin-81 to protect my heart.

Would appreciate an answer.

hi, have you asked your gp about proton pump inhibitor medication to decrease the acid producing medication that your on now, i suggest that you consult him or her about it asap, also try keep your ph levels above 7, this in turn will help ease your other symptoms.
