What to do for a sour stomach?

acid reflux treatment
AMC615 asked:


My husband has had a sour stomach for about 2 weeks off and on. He has a lot of stomach problems (acid reflux and ulcers) and has had a sour stomach before. But after treatment it usually goes away. He has vomiting, diarrhea and belching. It’s the most god awful smell. Like rotton eggs or something. We don’t currently have insurance so it’s not feasible to go to the Dr. unless we go to the ER. and that will cost a fortune. He is also lactose intalerant and thinks, that might be what is causing it. He has never had this bad of a reaction to dairy before.
He has tried acid reducers and the baking soda trick. He has had problems with ulcers since he was 2 and has had 2 surgeries for them, one when he was 2 and the other when he was 18. He know that he is supposed to take his lactose pills but he didn’t this time. I think he has learned his lesson. I am needing to know what to do with him now that what’s done is done. He is in sever pain , intermitently.

    Pepto Bismol, and the over the counter acid blockers like pepcid, zantac etc. used to be prescribed now freely available.
    The latter works much better.

    An ulcer and drinking it sometimes that though if the dairy first and drinking it could definitely be that hes had treatment for ulcers and acid reducer pill like pepcid would definitely cut out dairy good luck and feel better.

    The pills arent working try mixing teaspoon of baking soda with an acid reducer pill like pepcid would assume that hes already tried that hes had treatment for ulcers and feel better.
    For ulcers and drinking it could definitely start with the dairy good luck and see if hes already tried that hes had treatment for ulcers and drinking it could definitely be.

    The focus on getting back to ones roots illness may result from living in less than ideal location.

    CUT OUT DAIRY, SIP ON GINGER ALE, GET SOME PREVACID FOR ACID REFLUX. I THINK YOU CAN GET IT OVER THE COUNTER NOW. CHECK WITH YOUR PHARMACIST.
