Well now you mention it  ;D

What I would give for a normal stomach. Why did I not appreciate it when I was young. The amount I could stuff down my throat with no trouble. Now I even look at an apple with suspicion.

No fun this is it.

Well ladies tomorrow can only get better. I'm going to start my day with porridge. It often helps.

Drown, crown....I got your drift  ;D

Oh me too...I try to forget the stomach issues but the most frustrating thing for me is about eight years ago after such a long while suffering I managed to get off all my meds and get back to almost normal. I could even have a curry.
Now I'm back to bloody square one again and I can't figure out why.

I might just try what I did before and see what happens...it can't get much worse than it is now.

Oh well off for my nightcap of Gaviscon.  ::)

Don't think I will be risking a curry anytime soon though  ;D

Dyan, that's exactly it, the pain in the stomach is an acid 'flare' that I get - just a few seconds at it's worst, and is always followed by leakage of acid into my oesophagus.

Sparkle, yes have tried Gaviscon Advance, and I agree, it's the best of the bunch - the trouble I have is it's consistency, it actually makes me gag and feels like I'm choking/drowning. Feels like I'm swallowing - oh eek - no won't say, some of you might be having supper! x

I've had a completely different day today. No heartburn at all :)
Strange how it goes isn't it? :-\
I'm going to shut up now because I don't want to talk it up ;D
Haven't had my evening meal yet.

Hi sparkle,
I've taken 2 lots of gaviscon so feeling better than I did thank you.
I didn't have the heartburn so that was something.
My stomach has gone down and I look only about 4 mths preggers now ;D.
Been to the loo but feel I need to go again but cant :-\

I have the mirena Sparkle so no periods.
I've had 2 mirena's in 7 years so I don't really know what would happen if I had it removed :-\
I'm due to have it renewed next August.
We have nobody at our surgery now who actually deals with menopause & HRT.
The main nurse left,the GP she handed it down to left,and the other GP,who took over,has gone too :-\

I use estrogen gel and I have the mirena for the progesterone part and to protect my womb as I still have my ovaries.
I'm 54 and last year I had an internal scan for a problem I had and the consultant told me I was post menopause.
I haven't a clue, because once the mirena comes out will my periods come back? :-\
The mirena stops the bleeding, after it has been inserted a few months so it's been about 7 years without a bleed.
Very confusing this meno lark :-\

Have you got any anti nausea pills sparkle. When I get like you describe I use Domperidome or Metochlopramide for a few days to get things back on track.

I have eaten too much and now feel like a whale  ::)

Oh heck no. They are prescription only and the GPs are not that keen. I have a few for emergencies when my digestive system just seems to go slow. It sends things through quicker. If things are no better for you at the beginning of the week then go and ask for one of them.

If my tummy stops gurgling then I know I'm in for trouble. When things are moving along it gurgles away.

Can't even think of what to suggest.

You can get other anti nausea pills. My daughter was prescribed them a while ago. They are sold for travel sickness but work well for general queasiness. Now I know you can buy them.....excuse the spelling but they are called Stugereon I think. Any pharmacy has them.
