lorrie Posted August 23, 2008 Report Share Posted August 23, 2008 Yes, I have a lot of stomach pain and take Protonix to help with it. It takes the edge off, but I still have bouts of extreme diarrhea and pain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nunibenuni Posted August 25, 2008 Report Share Posted August 25, 2008 I have stomach pain all the time. My health problems started when I was 8 with a stomach ache that never went away. I've had 2 endoscopies that showed nothing. I used to take nexium every day, but it is bad to be on that for too long (has been shown to cause osteoporosis). Right now, I'm just trying to manage my stomach aches. I don't think my stomach is all related to POTS (I do have some food sensitivities), but my stomach is at its worst during POTS episodes.

Megan Posted August 29, 2008 Report Share Posted August 29, 2008 I have been told that sometimes stomach pain in POTS patients comes from the fact that weird blood flow causes the stomach to sometimes digest when it shouldn't and not when it should.Meg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tsampa Posted August 29, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2008 Perhaps it is also why we are taking medicine every day and we don't support it very well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
