Has anyone experienced gastric issues as a result of their anxiety

I used to take Klonapin for anxiety. I was mostly just fine. I wake at nite with anxiety with no reason. Dr. Said no more. I have had ulcers from acid and found I also have hiatal hernia. I developed pain indigestion and chills. Dr gave me 2 kinds of medicine and a diet of bland. I'm not so good at bland. I had another doctor saying take gallbladder out. Thinking that's helpful. NO! Stomach doctor said big mistake. I bought a bed to elevate my head as suggested. I still wake up constantly. If the bed helps, probably does, great. It does have bouts of no issues, but comes back. I am grateful there are drugs to help, but I am miserable. Sucrafate tab. Pantoprazole sod Dr is the other meds.

Ulcers how fun ( sarcasm). I had gastric bypass and they fixed my hiatal hernia then. I thought years of having GERD was over. Nope it’s worse than ever. I haven’t found anything that helps when it gets really bad I already take 40mg of nexium a day for it. I was eating tums gummies like candy with no help. I have horrible IBS when I am stressed out to the point I can’t eat and can only tolerate very little when I do eat. Rice and chicken was one meal I could eat. My GI did a colonoscopy to check for blockages and polyps none were found. Haven’t had an EGD yet bc he thinks all my stomach pain, heartburn, gas, bloating, constepation and diarrhea are from my anxiety. I take 6 meds for my anxiety already some prescribed and some holistic. I’m so over all this pain and issues popping up.
