As of today, I've noticed no marked improvement. I'm still having cramping, dull, aching pains just below my breast bone.
Nothing helps the pain at all.
I don't know of any gastro-related problems in my family other than an ulcer that my mom has. The pain is worse at night and usually wakes me atleast once during sleep. It usually goes away after breakfast and doesn't come back until after dinner. During the rest of the day, I have a mild stomach ache.
