Could Being Under Stress Lead To Sore Stomach And Loss Of Energy?
Hi, I have a sore stomach, going through to the back, no energy, and sweat alot at night. I drink vodka and diet coke about 4 nights a week. I also run my own business and have been under a lot of stress for about 3 years now. I have a gut feeling it may be bad.

Hi,
You may be suffering from gastritis caused by both stress and alcohol. Gastritis is an inflammation of the stomach lining.
I suggest you try to cut down the alcohol, take an over-the-counter antacid. See your doctor to discuss an H2 blocker such as ranitidine and a proton-pump inhibitor such as omeprazole.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Dr K A Pottinger
