Diagnosed Bleeding Ulcer

Hi Gina, I missed you! I hope you had a great weekend away I prayed you would. I am pretty scared right now just that word "bleeding ulcer" I have a question for you, didn't you tell me one time that you threw up blood a few times?? I think I remembert that, because right before I did I had real hot acid come up my throat, is that GERD?? Can Gerd make you vomit blood the Doctor is treating it as an ulcer but did say it could of been from the hot fluid burning my throat or esphogas, I wish it was that explanation, an ulcer scares me. Please write me Gina. Hugs, Debbie.

Debbie, I'm so sorry that your going through this. I never had a bleeding ulcer but I did have such a severe case of Acid Reflex that I would constantly throw up blood. I couldn't even keep water down when it got really bad. I lost a lot of weight because I was always afraid to eat because I figured I would just throw it up anyways, which I usually did. Now I have medicine for it, and I have to take it or I get very sick, very quickly. My doctor said that because it took them so long to find out what was wrong with me that the inner lining in my throat is ruined. Nice, huh? Anyway, I really hope the medicine works for you and if it don't, don't give up. They have lots of things they can do for ulcers nowadays. I'm sending you lots of prayers and hugs. MysticMirror

I have not posted for a few days I have been very ill, vomiting blood and severe pain, the Doctor says he thinks I have an ulcer and the blood in my vomit indicates it bleeding and sore. I am very very scared, I have medicine and I pray God it works. I keep having these terrible visions of my ulcer perforating and bleeding to death inside, it makes the pain worse and my panic is sky high. I guess it explains the weakness and dizziness and the constant nausea and vomiting. Has anyone ever had a ulcer? or vomited blood? When you have time please write me back any words of encouragment would be appreciated, I am being treated by a Doctor, can a bleeding ulcer be cured by medicine I hope? I do not want a tube down my throat or surgery. I am sorry to bother anyone I am very scared. Please send prayers. Thank you very much. God bless, Debbie.
