Just wondering if this neck pain is part of the healing process? I know GERD can cause neck pain/aches, but they thought it may be just an ulcer. (peptic)..
been in hell these past few days. All I can do is lay my head down on the pillow then its hurting that bad. sucks.... nothing helps it either.. no OTC pain meds.

I'm just wondering if this is part of the healing process? If any of you had an ulcer.
Feels like torture.
GERD is usually present with digestive ulcers, but the ulcer alone will not cause neck pain. The kind of high acid count in the body that is usually present with GERD can cause inflammation of the neck area. Also if you've been prescribed Aciphex then you're being treated for GERD.

I cured an ulcer that I had a few years back, and helped treat someone for it about 3 month ago. I don't bother with doctors and the cocktail of antibiotics as it knocks out too much of the probiotics and you can have complications with it. Even the Aciphex they gave you I personally would never touch, mainly because of the following on the label listed as side-effects. A quick online search found the following list for an antacid medication Aciphex.

•Allergic reaction
•Tiredness
•High blood pressure (hypertension)
•Heart attack (myocardial infarction)
•Migraine
•Fainting
•Syncope
•Chest pain (angina pectoris)
•Increased heart rate (tachycardia)
•Diarrhea
•Nausea
•Vomiting
•Indigestion (dyspepsia)
•Flatulence
•Constipation
•Dry mouth
•Burping
•Loss of appetite (anorexia)
•Gallstones
•Anemia
•Swelling
•Weight gain
•Gout
•Dehydration
•Weight loss
•Insomnia
•Anxiety
•Dizziness
•Depression
•Itching
•Spinning sensation (vertigo)
•Hair loss (alopecia)
•Glaucoma
•Dry eyes
•Abnormal vision
•Ringing of the ears (tinnitus)
•Middle ear infections (otitis media)
•Bladder infection

There are easier and safer ways to get your body back into an alkaline state than risking all these conditions. Try a good calcium supplement. Milk won't work btw.
