Gastritis: Check out http://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/gastritis/basics/definition/con-20021032 for more info on gastritis. Try to avoid those foods & positions that aggravate your pain. Calcium carbonate aka Tums & Rolaids is a good next option followed by H2 blockers such as Axid, (nizatidine) Pepcid & Tagamet. Failing that, consider course of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) like Prilosec. You may need an EGD
