carafate

Call your doctor and tell him concisely how badly things are for you right now.

No problem. I really hope you're better soon. I've been there :(

I have been given a short supply of Carafate (Sucralfate) to try out. I have tried it twice, last thing at night, and each time woke with the worst nausea I've had in 2 years - nearly didn't manage the school run because of it! Bit nervous of trying it again but may try it on waking one day, although that's when I take my Zantac etc, so can't do that at the moment either. Disappointed it made me feel so green!

I have been on it since last thursday I am taking it 4 times a day which has made me sick to my stomach as well but as far as the pain not much better and my Dr is out of town so have to wait until next monday i was also put on a low residue diet which means no fruit or vegtables really not much on it to eat but that is fine I hurt to bad to eat my other problem is I have other health issues like RSD ,tissue resistant hypothyroidism so I have to take these medicines about 6 times a day but I have to make sure I take them at least 1-2 hours after the carafate so much fun I just thought I would have some relief by now if I just eat crackres or a 90 calorie special K bar my stomach just gets huge I feel like I did when I was 9 months pregnant my stmach feels like I am doing crunches it just tightens up on its own also have trouble breathing from the pain if I did not have RSD and am on pain medicine all the time I am not sure what I would do I had my appendix removed last year and the pain feels the same as before I had surgery any suggestions tell I see my Dr next week I have to just lay on my back to get relief just sitting causes pain
