From a page describing it:> "People who drink heavily often avoid visiting their doctors even when they experience pain. However, it’s crucial that you seek medical advice and treatment if you believe that you are suffering from alcoholic gastritis."> "Alcoholic gastritis is highly treatable. If you stop drinking alcohol, your stomach lining will repair itself in time."> "Stressful situations should also be avoided. When they cannot be avoided, healthy responses should be encouraged and cultivated. Going for a walk outside, meditation, taking deep breaths, and journaling are all examples of healthy ways to deal with stress."> But as to feeling sick going up a hill:> "Chronic gastritis comes on more slowly as stomach acid eats away at the stomach lining. As a result, people with chronic gastritis may feel a consistent mild stomach pain in their upper abdomen. They may also feel tired or anemic, and they may have difficulty eating at regular mealtimes."Thanks for reading my blog.
