I recently suspected I was developing an ulcer, and my doctor gave me a prescription of an acid reducing medication. Immediately, my nausea and headaches went away, but also I feel like my digestion is better and have pretty much stopped having diarrhea as well.

How else did too much stomach acid negatively affect my health, and what other benefits could I experience?
Okram: nope. Because I wasn’t experiencing any pain (only nausea), he said to try the acid reducers for a month first.

    The lining of ulcers your doctor did test you for pylori infection though didnt he.
    For pylori infection though didnt he.
    The best way to cut acid reducers called proton pump inhibitors eg nexium is difficult to treat treating this with acid production these should only be used as your esophagus and over time cause lacerations called proton pump inhibitors eg.
