Hunger

Does anyone else have trouble deciphering hunger from stomache pain?

      Take your PPI religiously and eat on a schedule. If you wait until you are "hungry" to eat, you may eat too often or not enough. Like you said, it's tough to distinguish "hunger" from other things lik

    I do. The most I can do is make sure I take my PPI twice a day, and drink lots of water to keep satisfied. Once and awhile, I'll take an otc chewable antacid during those times, and I find that helps.

    Would putting myself on a schedule work? Ugh

    Take your PPI religiously and eat on a schedule. If you wait until you are "hungry" to eat, you may eat too often or not enough. Like you said, it's tough to distinguish "hunger" from other things like reflux or heartburn or just a rumbly tummy. So if you take your PPI, you can diminish the occurrences of those other symptoms. And if you eat on a schedule, you can be sure you are eating enough and meeting your daily nutrition goals.
