So your ulceration is near the stomach opening? You might want to see if you have an h pylori infection too. I get gerd from time to time so I use betaine HCL which raises stomach acid, and it subsides. Could be placebo effect but I will do what works.
They also do removal of guts and colostomy bags if its extremely severe.
Yeah probably closer to the end of the stomach, but it's all throughout really.
Thanks for mentioning h pylori, high correlation as a precursor to stomach cancer, next time I see my GI I'll ask him about that.
Have not used betaine HCL or any other meds nor had gerd, but worth keeping in mind just in case. Some high acidic foods cause stomach cramps/pain though. Non-smoker, and eventually no more alcohol, especially if conditions worse - say no colostomy bags!
