  1. At my recent doctor appointment on Tuesday 6/7 I was diagnosed with gastritis. It can happen after a gastric bypass. I explained that my stomach ALWAYS hurt and was progressing to be felt in breastbone/rib. It was a gnawing pain that affected eating and may explain my aversion to food other than soup and liquid. It was a completely new pain or feeling-it woke me up at night. Often I dismissed it as gas or hunger pain. But as it progressed it was AWFUL. I took my first dose of Omeprazole yesterday and I felt better. This medicine is over the counter Prilosec but STRONGER…over counter is 20mg I’m taking 40mg. It isn’t too common but a result of some patients. My doctor explained that the new hookup procedure isn’t natural. This DOESN’T happen to everyone only a few (lucky me). My stomach was bypassed and a pouch was made by hooking into intestines-my new stomach lining is mad at me. I have never ever had to use Prilosec in my life-never had acid reflux -stomach issues-or heartburn….it’s a new one for me 🙄. I go back to the doctor in two weeks. He told me I may need to take this forever but I hope I get a break in between omeprazole treatments. My concern is if I am dependent on this medication- it will deplete my Vitamin D reserves. I am happy I may know why I am uncomfortable. I can’t wait to eat normally. I’m still happy with my weight loss and looking forward to forgoing high blood pressure and high cholesterol…..and prevent diabetes!
