Chronic Gastritis- Excruciating Pain

Hello,

My sister has suffered from chronic Gastritis for over 18th months shes been pescribed medication thats having little effect to zero effect - one of them being omeprozle. She is keeping a bland diet of veggies and leans meats such a turkey and chicken, and low acid smoothies like kale and spinach.

I have lost count of how many times shes been rushed in to A&E recently she had been in hospital for weeks at a time; gets released and then in agony within the next week and back to square one and in hospital .

This past week the pain in her chest, back. spine and shoulder blades has been so excruciating the only pain duller was morphine., Ive never witnessed someone in so much horrifying pain.

My sister has zero quality of life and is down to around 6 stone 5 (she is 5 foot 7).

There seems to be little pattern of what can cause these flare ups even the tiniest sip of water can bring on the burping (roaring) pain and extreme sickness which is usually bile of a yellow, green or more recently aqua blue colour.

There has to be more to this than chronic gastritis, we're all so desperate to find a diagnosis and pushing for more endoscopy's and scans - please can anyone help or know of anyone that has experienced these type of symptoms?

Any help or suggestions would be so grateful for - we're all at rock bottom.

Thank you x
