A member asked:

I'm on a one meal a day diet, and i think i've over done it, there's pain in my upper stomach area, i think i have a stomach ulcer, what should i do?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Gastritis: It is better to have small frequent meals rather than go through extended periods of time without food. You may want to try an over the counter antacid, such as zantac (ranitidine) or pepcid, avoid alcohol and if the symptoms persist, see your doctor.
