Hello I was diagnosed with gastritis, im on kapidex have been for about 2 months now, and still nothing, it keeps coming back. i have had an upper gi done a cat scan and blood work and supposively they all showed up normal. im thinking that my stomack doctor is starting to be wrong because it keeps coming back. Please help will I always have this???

Hello, yes I have had to change me eating habitats, I had to because it gets worse when I eat spicy, greasy acidic foods. I can't drink orange juice nor cranberry juice which I love to drink. Yes he did check my gall bladder and he said that it was fine. I do think that he is wrong in some cases too. I will deff. take your offer on looking for another gi dr. Thank you so much!!

Hi...were u checked for H.Pylori....or ur Gall Bladder looked at?......

Did ur dr tell u to make lifestyle changes as well as modify ur diet as foods can affect gerd?
Meds alone can not help u get better u have to avoid what is also a trigger.

Please see our Health Pages for the list of foods to avoid as well as lifestyle changes.

Ur dr may not be 100% right as to what is causing ur gerd, but if he is treating it  for 2 months with out doing further testing I would deff see another GI dr.

Good luck
