Try an antacid first Lance ,if that helps go on to  the Munauka Honey.

This article should help with description of symptoms

Chuck those damned masking drugs in the bin for good after trying Manuka.
NO side effects, it's a CURE not a mask & in 90%+ of cases it works - it CURES you!
Linda - who spent 10yrs working for a major pharmaceutical & has horror stories to tell by galore. I used to see a great number of the customer complaints with bad side effects etc. I had to retest the drugs involved - I would NOT put my name on the test sheets unless they allowed me to put MY results on - they often wouldn't! The pet Chemist somehow always managed to get all within specs - after spending hours on the calculators ! GRRRRRRRRRRRR
The pharmaceuticals don't get it right all the time!

Have to agree Linda. I was told that Tramadol was NOT addictive.  Three years later they admit it is  and even have it on the side effects.

Unfortunately I can't find anything else to deal with my symptoms.

Lance, I do not need more than my normal month supply  :). It was Ian who posted the question about supplies in Turkey. As for your pains I suggest you see your doctor rather than try to get a "forum diagnosis" although your pains sound familiar :-\.
Linda the Manuca did not work for me although I may not have given it long enough.
Cheers
Ken :D

Manuka - isn't a 'quick cure'. It HAS to be taken regularly for 3 months or so to kill all the H Pylori. IF H Pylori is the cause - in over 90% of cases, it is, then it WILL cure the problem NOT just mask it & leave you taking a drug that possibly has long-term side effects for the rest of your days.

Hi Linda

Problem is that there are probably a lot of us who would like to try Manuka but I haven't yet found it in Fethiye

Maybe one of the pharmacies might get some in for you. It should be Active 10+ UMF or better (the better ones can cost though & Active 10+ is sufficient for most problems - acid reflux, ulcers, wounds, MRSA etc. The 'in the know' pharmacies here can & do get it in. You can order directly from New Zealand BUT I know the post isn't too great especially it seems for expats. The trouble is that you'll be getting through around a dozen or so jars in the 3 months you need to take it. £70-£80 from Sainsburys to CURE the problem isn't excessive + we can just pop in for another jar whenever we need it. Maybe speaking to a friendly pharmacist & doing some research on prices from New Zealand might be the key?

hi, i was on these omeprazole tablets and they did no good, i suffered for a long time with my stomach, in the end i was told  i  had a leaky gut  and  advised to use natural products, so i take a digestaid and a probioitic,  six month later my  leaky gut has healed and i am well, but still take the natural aids
