Gastric problem
I am suffering from gastric problems since almost 15 years . I have consulted many doctors but there was no permanent solution for the problem . I am a pure vegetarian and I take less of spices in my daily diet. The doctors whom I have consulted earlier gave me the prescription of various tablets such as omprogil and lanceprogil . But they have worked only temporarily. I am getting frequently burps. I am using famocid tablets for over the last few years. It has given me a better relief and haven't consulted any doctor in the recent Past. Is it better to consult one . If it is so, then please tell me which kind of doctor to consult

Sometimes there won't be any cure .life long medication may be necessary.have endoscopy every 5 years to check for any changes in the gut.in very severe case surgery is an option but there is no guarantee for it.

Hello there.
I can understand your concern.
I appreciate Dr. Riar for giving his opinion but all the medications which he has suggested are unnecessary. No point of taking zerodol-th and also no point of taking etilaam.
I would suggest you get yourself checked out by a general surgeon in person. H. Pylori and gastric ulcers should be dealt with.
I wouldnt recommend using any mediciations without consulting a general surgeon in person.
Best regards.
