I was having chronic duodenal ulcer and gastritis(no h pylori)and taking hp kit for 14 days but reapear,wil i continue or opt for another,pls help. ## I had severe burning sense on my head and eyes,my doc says it was the effect from your disease(chronic d ulcer and gastritis),was it posible.i rarely met apatient with these symptoms.pls guide. ## Hello, Pao! How are you feeling? If you don't have h. pylori, why were you taking the full kit? You don't need the antibiotics that it contains. If you just have gastritis and an ulcer from excess acid, then you'd just need an antacid or proton pump inhibitor. What type of doctor have you been consulting for this?

Hi, I was today prescribed Ardosons for acute pain and inflammatory process of the joint on my middle right finger. I made it clear to the physician that I have blood high pressure and that I was subject to a cateterism on 2006 due to ischemic peripheral vessels.
