I've decided I have an ulcer..

Please don't tell me to see a physician because that isn't going to happen..I had an ulcer years ago and I was prescribed one med and that didn't work so well, and then the other..The second one worked really well…But I can't remember which one was prescribed in which order !

I believe the ulcer is just past my stomach.

Any personal experience is greatly appreciated !


Answer:
They’re pretty much the same thing. Should work the same if you’ve the right dose. Over the counter Prilosec is a different class with a different mechanism of action. I’ve come to believe that the medications might be more of a cause than a cure. I was on zantac in the AM and prilosec in the evening. Now I do neither, use lots of Celtic sea salt, and only eat real food. No more processed foods of any kind. I had an ulcer and a hyetal hernia with horrible heart burn. Since the change, I’ve only experienced heart burn 1 time in the last year. But you should know that I also stopped taking 8 different prescription drugs. Who knows what the key change was. But I now believe that the key is to increase the acid, not block it.
