I've suffered a duodenal ulcer in the past and I lost some weight for two reasons ie the pain I had as masses of food were being passed thorough it which could result in me vomiting and secondly the knock-on effect of a lack of appetite. Besides, the body normally gets stressed with this sort of trauma which burns up more calories.
Yes indeed it can. I have just learned I have a duodenal ulcer after months of feeling starving hungry and eating every hour to relieve the pain of the ulcer which I interpreted as hunger. I've put on 10 kilos because of this phantom hunger pain. If you feel hungry all the time, like a dull ache below your breast bone, only an hour after eating a good meal, chances are you have an ulcer. I tried antacids and immediately noticed the difference. The pain went away but I have to keep having them all throughout the day. If you're not sure try Gaviscon as it has a longer lasting effect. You'll soon know if it is genuine hunger or the burning from an ulcer. Ulcers are very common by the way and can be treated with antibiotics, diet changes and relaxation.
yes because they give you a false sense of feeling full and they can make you vomit also the scar tissue from an ulcer can block your stomach passage way which makes it harder for you to digest food so basically its best to see your doctor as soon as possible if you suspect a stomach ulcer and if it persists you will have to have an endoscopy to see what type of ulcer it is because if left too long they can kill you
Gastric ulcers do not cause you to gain weight directly, but the pain increases when your stomach is empty, so many people eat more often and more food than usual. It is best to be tested to find out what kind of ulcer you have and begin medication. Some ulcers resolve with medicines like Prevacid DR, others require antibiotics plus antacids....many doctors advise patients to consume 6 small meals per day.
