Gastritis and pain in spine
Posted , 9 users are following.
I’m having really bad problems with chronic Gastritis, the nausea is terrible, burning sensation in my stomach all the time, been on numerous meds, I also have pain in my upper right quadrant, I’ve had two ultrasounds and their clear, I had the pain again the other night. I’ve had pain in my lower back right in the spine since the Gastritis started, I’ve now got really bad pain in the middle of my spine. I’m worried that the PPI’s may have caused this, if not, can Gastritis cause pain in the spine? 😞

Yes pain can radiate into your back and stimulate "your brain" to think its spine...
Similar way people with hernia thinks they have hearth attack.
How long time are you takin ppi? Whats the cause of your chronic gastritis?

It was destroying me.... every little pain i had my brain would be alert and i would try to asociate it with my condition... anxiety is normal.... but i am just not letting the thoughts go through my head....
I am not much better but i have no more negative thoughts and if i feel pain i take it like a champ... it is what it is...

Gas and particularly acute gas can make you think that you're having a heart attack. And yes PPIs can make gas worst. Try a teaspoon of baking soda in a half glass warm water to relieve gas by belching. You may have IBS A colonoscopy would help drtermine if you do. If you do I would advise staying off the PPI, they can make you feel good while on them or bad.

Been offered a colonoscopy, but refused for the reason my nephew died with a perforation after one. 😢
