 3  Gastritis I'm not sure if it was (seasonal) allergies, nerves, or what... But a sticky feeling in my throat and feeling of something catching in my throat.... Also coughed a little and sore throat. Other than that.... What a blessing.... I already was talking Pepcid for the gastritis and that killed some of the acid and pain, but the carafate killed it off entirely... The doctor wants me to take it 4x's a day (there was signs of minute traces of blood in my stool; doctor believed that it was just aggravated stomach, and not yet quite an ulcer), but between the Pepcid and Maalox and bland diet, I'm wondering if 2xs a day would be sufficient. Considering my anxiety disorder, I can't help but think that a lot of the feeling that I have with the medication isn't mental. M 30 1 days
