bummer

So, since yesterday morning I had been having some pains behind my sternumn (the bottom of the esophagus basically). The pain woke me up and I originally thought it was anxiety because it felt like a knot in there. I took one of my anti-anxiety medications and it went away and only became a dull ache that I could manage. I hadn't been eating for

I'm so sorry that you're dealing with ulcers. I've had ulcers up and down my throat before. With a scope, the doctor estimated that there was over 20. None of the medicine worked, but one liquid combo of pepto and 2 other medicines (you could see the 3 different layers of medicine when it settled--sorry, not sure what it's called). That helped with the smaller ones. The bigger ones, though, they had to be burned/cauterized with silver nitrate. Unfortunately, that hurt like hell, but I felt relief within an hour and after a couple days, they were all gone.

Some home remedies include: honey, yogurt (any probiotic), cranberry juice with no sugar added, green tea, garlic, cabbage juice, coconut oil, bananas, and no lie, cayenne pepper (to make a cup of peppered tea, mix 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper in 1 cup hot water. Drink a cup a day.) I'm sure there are more, but these were ones I've been told over the years. I know people who would swear over each one, too.

I wish you the best for a speedy recovery!
