I have a Peptic Ulcer. I do not want to have an ulcer, but, that’s what I got. I have had this little friend for just over a year. Most of the time, the little tyke stays asleep and does not bother me. Yesterday morning, however, it woke up at 5am and wanted to play. I have been writhing in pain since yesterday. It would hurt like hell for a little while, I would dose it with Nexium, and it would subside for an hour or two, only to rise up again.
I woke this morning (after finally getting to sleep at 4AM), and felt great. Hurrah, the ulcer is gone! A little over an hour later, it’s back. I feel like crap, my back hurts, I can’t eat anything, we are out of Tums, my daughter has my car, my husband is out of town, I don’t feel like driving anywhere, I am popping Nexium like candy and have had so much water I could easily drown. Anything I eat, besides Jell-o, angers the ulcer.
Lord, make it stop!!
