Just yesterday (thursday) I got diagnosed
with having gastritis caused from an
anti-inflammatory medication.
Symptoms started on sunday, 4 days after
first taking the anti-inflammatory. They
included:
-nausea with no vomiting
-bloating after eating (didn't matter how
much I had to eat)
-diarrhea/loose stools
-constant stomach gurggling
-just an all day general feeling of not
feeling good
also, just last night I woke up at 4:20 am
with stomach pain I have not felt in a
very long time. I had to stand up for it
to go away. It took about 45 min to 1
hour until it subsided.
Here's my question. I was just wondering
if anyone knew how long it takes for
gastritis symptoms to disappear. I am
really quite tired of feeling this way and
would like to get back to feeling well
again.
Any help would be appreciated. Thank
you.

Hi sweety1. Just replying to see if your
symptoms have gone. I've just posted a
message asking about my symptoms of
possible gastritis and wondering that if
my tests come back positive how long i've
got to feel this way for. I've recently
been getting the night pains too - and
you're right, they only subside if you
stand up! Anyway, I hope all is sorted
with you!!

Hi! :d
well, that was the first and only time I
got the night pains, thankfully. But
something still is not right with me. I
have to go next week (thursday) for a
couple more tests, upper gastrointestinal
series and a barium swallow. I guess I
will let you know how they turned out
after I get the test results back.
I don't get all of the symptoms that I had
when I first got diagnosed, but like I
said, there is something that is still not
right.
