Gastritis: Gastritis is an inflammation of the lining of the stomach with upper abdominal distress,burning,tenderness in the upper abdomen and occasionally nausea,fullness,and appetite loss. Your symptoms are predominantly gaseous distress and I wonder about lactose or gluten intolerance as a major cause. Taking mylanta after meals prevents gas buildup and ppi medications like prilosec or nexium reduce acid.

Gastritis: What is your diet like? What meds do you take? Were you ever a smoker? Many types of gastritis can be healed with a change in diet & life style (more exercise, meditation/prayer). Consult with us to help with more details.
