Can anyone give advice for a stomach disorder?I was bulimic and anorexic for about seven years. It has been about five years since I have considered myself "better". The problem is that I now have stomach condition where my stomach seems to produce a LOT of acid. I have been on Prevacid for about four years and it sort of helps but not completely. Last month I accidentally got spit on something and it ate the paint right off in about a week. Also, if I skip a day with the Prevacid my lips get chapped, like from my stomach acid. Has anyone ever experienced a problem like this? I don't know what to do - I don't want to be on this medication for the rest of my life.

Go to a doctor right away you sound like you have acid reflux and this can cause many stomach problems like damage to the walls of your stomach or asophigas or your large and small intestine

Im glad your not doing the abusive eat puke eat puke routine anymore! I bet you look great too! Acid in the stomach is normal. But when it leaves the stomach up thru the esophagus -tube that goes from mouth to stomach- thats a problem! Its called GERDS or Gastro Esophageal Reflux Disease and can be caused by a variety of reasons- eating to close to bedtime/eating acid type foods citrus fruits/ Hiatal Hernia -stomach pops into chest/thorax-all can if untreated cause much ouchies-try a different medication-Nexium or go to a Gastroenterologist and he will make you much better! oh drink a small water and baking soda b 4 going to bed thatll nuteralize some of the acid.
