The avoidance of spicy foods is primary, but most health professionals also advise to avoid milk.... I realize you had some relief but that's temporary due to the coating action. Milk stimulates production of acid in the stomach... read here, for one discussion:
Milk can make your ulcer worse. Milk provides brief relief of ulcer pain because it coats the stomach lining. But milk can also stimulate your stomach to produce more acid and digestive juices, which can aggravate ulcers.

agree avoid milk, its a myth that it helps.
Avoid, too coffee, spicy food, acidic foods like tomatoes and too much alcohol (if you do drink stick to beer if you can
Try not to eat late at night
Drink plenty of water
Vitamin tablets and pain killers are very egressive so avoid if you can or take early in the day with food.
Take zantac to help ease in the short term (2-3days)
