A member asked:

I have ulcer and get heart burn often?

Dr. Rick Koch answered

Treatment: You need a proton pump inhibitor (ppi) if you have an ulcer and should discontinue nsaids if taking. If you have an ulcer you presumably had an egd with CLO testing. I may be misunderstanding your brief question but talk to a physician.
