Not persoanlly. But it might help you to get an idea of your bodies ph.
Buy litmus strips from your drug store and pee on them in the morning and check your ph against the scale. You could be very acidic. Your body wants to be alkaline so eating things that make you acidic hurt your bodies ability to heal.
How Are Ulcers Diagnosed and Treated?
In addition to doing a physical examination, the doctor will take a medical history by asking about any concerns and symptoms you have, your past health, your family's health, any medications you're taking, any allergies you may have, and other issues. If you have stomach pain or other symptoms of an ulcer, the doctor will perform some tests to help make the diagnosis.
One test is called an upper gastrointestinal (GI) series. This is a type of X-ray of the stomach, duodenum, and esophagus, the muscular tube that links the mouth to the stomach. A person drinks a whitish liquid called barium while getting an X-ray, and if he or she has an ulcer, it should be outlined on the X-ray.
Another common procedure to look for an ulcer is called an endoscopy (pronounced: en-dass-kuh-pee). During this test, the doctor uses an endoscope, a skinny, lighted tube with a special camera on the end.
A doctor will give someone getting an endoscopy medicine to feel relaxed. Then the doctor gently guides the endoscope into the throat and down into the esophagus, and finally into the stomach and upper intestines. The doctor is able to look at the inner lining of these organs from the camera on a television screen and can even take pictures. Tissue can be removed during an endoscopy and then tested for H. pylori bacteria.
A doctor can also do a blood test for H. pylori bacteria. This may be important if an ulcer is found in the upper GI series or is suspected before the endoscopy. The blood test can be done right in the doctor's office. Sometimes a bowel movement or a person's breath can also be specially tested to check for the H. pylori bacteria.
Ulcers caused by H. pylori bacteria are generally treated with a combination of medications; usually two to three medicines are taken every day for a few weeks. Antibiotics are prescribed to kill the H. pylori bacteria. The other medicines ? acid blockers or proton pump inhibitors ? lessen the amount of acid in the stomach and help protect the lining of the stomach so the ulcer can heal.

I have two, they haven't flared up in a few years, but when they do, it's pretty brutal.

Detox the sugar and grains and try eating more fermented foods, like yogurt, kefir, tempeh, etc ... A probiotic supplement to help promote healthy gut flora would be beneficial too.
