Hi

Thanks for posting your query

What I gather from your information is that you are probably suffering from drug - medicine induced gastritis

Commonly seen with steroids and antibiotics

You better add a proton pump inhibitor for seven to ten days before breakfast

Avoid spicy and fermented meals

Add an antacid gel if need be

Hope this helps

Am available for followup queries

Get well soon
