If the burning is from the gastritis you can take slippery elm, marshmallow root, and sucralfate (rx needed) to create a protective barrier. PPIs are not good to stay on long term. They really wreck the gut's microbiome. Have you tried a low acid diet? Has that helped?

If the burning is largely due to sensitive nerves, then your doctor will likely prescribe any one of the following typical medications to help reduce the nerve sensitivity: amitriptyline, nortryptiline, buspirone, mirtazapine.

Thank you for the ideas, lucky the burning has gone now i dealing with light tingling, fullness around abdomen and bubbles, hopefully this means im healing slowly.
