I just spent a lot of money on supplements. I figured either that or another Dr’s appointment. I got some Magnesium to help with sleep & energy, GABA to help with anxiety and depression, B12 to help with energy, Aloe Vera Juice to help heal the ulcer in my stomach, and buffered vitamin C to switch to while the ulcer is healing.
8 months ago I had a baby. 5 weeks after I had my gallbladder removed. 4 weeks after that Dr’s found an ulcer in my stomach. 3 months after that my skin broke with an itchy rash from head to toe. That was all 3 months ago. My body was practically screaming at me to make some changes. That was right about the time I started this blog, and make some necessary changes.
The ulcer symptoms have increased over the past month, ever since I cut the medication to half. I’m pretty sure that anxiety plays a huge role in aggravating this ulcer, and I know that diet does too. I’m going to stop taking the medication (since I was suppose to discontinue use two months ago), and I’m going to try using aloe juice for the next three months and see how that works. If my symptoms get worse I will stop immediately and call my Dr and see what he recommends.
I’m also going to take the other supplements I bought to help with energy, anxiety, depression, immune system, and sleep (all which play a roll in ulcer symptoms, and healing). I know I can’t just go out and buy a cure. I’ve already tried that. I’ve also made some serious life style changes. However it just doesn’t seem to be enough. Healing ulcers just takes time.
