@margot69- I'm sorry that you have this problem. Late last year I was introduced to a relatively new otc for indigestion, FD Gard. This is for upper belly- It calms everything down. Bd Gard is, lower belly, helps with IBS symptoms. See if they will help. I take them along with Omeprazole. Check with your doctor to make sure they are ok for you to take.

Hi Merry,
I might check on that but it has been years of this, many tests and many meds, there about 14 now that I can't take (why my doctor and myself are concerned about the Chemo). Can't take Nexium or Omeprazole. I have been in Ranitidine twice a day. I actually get up around 5-5:30, take two and go back to bed to try and settle my stomach before I get up. My GI Doctor at Stanford suggested Intry Iberogast, which is an herbal liquid I order on Amazon. That has seemed to help me the most and I now take it as needed. I have read the GI community is starting to prescribe it now. My GI Doctor here has given it to some of his patients. I have been on Gabapentin for years for my stomach. They actually prescribe it for neuropathy, which I developed and was on the ned, only me. Actually, had to see a Neurologist at Stanford because they couldn't figure that out either. Did punch biopsies and I have small fiber neuropathy, idiopathic, of course. I will make note of the FD Gard but kind of hate to rock the boat right now.
