I just want to drop this here because it take me memory lane and I know there are people still struggling with it today. There is a saying that "Knowledge is power."
So, growing up I watch my mum(RIP) go through the pain of stomach ulcer, during the time of her crisis, she bears pain and something it is overbearing, I remember her taking some medications like the Jelucil which is a supposed antacid, a friend advised her to mix iodine liquid with stout to drink as a solution, none of all she took didn't really help. That illness plus aging drained her fast and because we have no money enough to continously going for admission in the hospital, she manage and manage to live with the condition until other illness crept in and ended her life. Why this story today? I had a long day yesterday and got home late hungry, I couldn't help eating late which I already know I am not supposed to do but the hunger was real, some minutes after my dinner I slept off just to wake up 2hrs later feeling like I am being choked by someone in my bed. I stood up to discover this sharp pain in my throat and this brought me thinking, if only my mum knows what I know now, this were the problem of those who battled stomach ulcer, indigestion is the chief cause, how do you prevent stomach ulcer pain, for me I know well that I should quit eating late no matter what but there may be times like yesterday when it become difficult what do you do?
I know there are people still going through this kind of pain and do not know what to do. Please do not blame it on witchcraft or someone is poisoning you. Ask questions, read about it, though there are home remedy, which one is good enough to help soothe the pain.
I will like to know what you take when in stomach ulcer crisis in the comment. You are helping someone, please save a life. Thank you for reading this long post. Add a comment and community will appreciate.
