How Can Stomach Ulcers Be Treated?

Do you have any immediate remedies for a stomach ulcer? My wife went to the ER Sunday and they did nothing for her. We can t get into the Gastroenterologist til the end of the month and she is screaming in pain. They gave her Carafate and shes almost done with the whole bottle and gave her some phenergan and it does nothing. She hasn t slept in days or ate. Any suggestions?

Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
In my opinion, she should follow these steps for better symptomatic relief in stomach ulcer pain.
1. Avoid hot and spicy food.
2. Avoid junk food. Avoid large meals, instead take frequent small meals.
3. Keep 2-3 pillows under head in bed.
4. Take pantoprazole and levosulperide combination on empty stomach twice daily.
5. Quit smoking and alcohol if she has these habits.
Don't worry, she will be alright with all these.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wishing good health to your wife. Thanks.
