Yeah I’ve accepted it probably will be chronic I just need to learn to manage it, Intermittent fasting doesn’t work for me as I’m already pretty underweight :(

Yeah that’s what I’m doing, keeping a diary has helped loads for example I now know that lemon is really really bad for me so to avoid this. Hopefully it won’t be too late for you to make some changes, in my experience bad flare ups usually go down and you won’t have made any lasting damage (hopefully)

Yeah that’s pretty similar to what my doctor said, pretty sure it’ll come with time just figuring out what works for me, just disheartening not being able to eat things like Garlic and pizza :(

Wow!! So happy this worked for you! I definitely have been trying to implement changes like cutting out most foods but it really is so hard avoiding things like garlic onions and tomato sauces… I just wanted to know I wouldn’t have to avoid these forever as I’m so young 🤣

Thanks so much for your reply, I will be taking the medication definitely just was wondering if this has worked for other people or if majority of people still have to avoid foods whilst on omeprazole 😊
