DELETE THIS ACCOUNT! 12,703 Posted December 26, 2012 Do you take NSAIDS regularly? Have you been drinking alcohol? Both can cause gastritis. If you don't know the cause of yours, I'd definitely see your surgeon, just to be sure it wasn't caused by a backup of bile from your band being out of place or too tight. Best wishes.

Thamm 46 Posted December 27, 2012 No alcohol lately but I have taken Motrin for headache. Band seems to be great no vomiting, nausea or any problems. No trouble with acid reflux just confused where this is coming from..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rmeza62 0 Posted December 27, 2012 Try to avoid citric foods or drinks, and no alcohol, I notices that when I drink something that contains alcohol I feel sick and the pain starts. I have tried something that works for me when I'm in pain, try taking just a little tip of a spoon of (sodium carbonate) Arm & Hammer with some Water and see the difference.

rmeza62 0 Posted January 4, 2013 Hi Thamm the other day I was feeling sick again and i searched on the internet about home remedies for gastritis and I found that the potato helps a lot, here is how you should do it, if you have a juice extractor take a potato and wash it real good and dry it then put it in the extractor and drink the juice of it, just one it will be like a half cup, tastes funny but it will work miraculously, try it and let me know. The way I did it because I don't have a juice extractor, I put the potato in the blender and added like 1/2 cup of Water and I drank the juice that came out, since that day I have feel so relieve from my pain, I took it two nights and said to my self I will take it for 10 days but I didn't, I took it only for 2 days and I feel great.

Angelizz10 76 Posted January 6, 2013 Diagnosed with gastritis today... Anyone else had this complication? My stomach is so sore. Interested in hearing from others Applesauce was the only thing that helped me. I ended up with erosions in my esophagus from all the acid and had surgery for it. It is nothing to try and "cure" yourself if your having constant pain and can't lay down and sleep. Talk to your doctor and follow his advice.
