silent reflux symptoms

Hello everyone

I have been diagnosed with LPR ,silent reflux. I have recently lost 60 pds and never knew this chest and breast pain was from gerd. Does anyone else have these symptoms? I have been diagnosed with a sluggish gallbladder and have done 2 flushes, which have helped the reflux and am doing another  one soon.

It has been a living hell since all this happened, not knowing what was wrong with me, so many symptoms; heart palpations, sore throat, pain in chest, arm, hand, neck pain, breast...i believe it is all linked to gerd. My symptoms are all on my right side.

So far I have tried digest enzymes, limenenone, rasie head of bed, avoiding certain foods, bile salts..all have helped. I cannot take ppi's, nor want to..too many reactions.

Any comments are welcome....melody

Hi Melody,

I've recently been diagnosed with GERD (feels sore on right hand side of esophagus when eating and swallowing) and I then worried so much about what it might have been that I had a fast endoscopy that showed completely nothing. It helped to a degree in that I stopped worrying which in itself was making the GERD much worse in the space of a few days.

To tell you what I've been trying, I'm eating soft foods with not too much fat, angled the head of the bed, sleeping on the left side not the right, taking a mixture of bicarbonate of soda with water after big meals, eating manuca honey, aloe vera, and taking prevacid. I think that some of this might be helping but I'm not totally sure as the problem isn't getting much better. I used to have a lot of pain radiating into my shoulder and down my arm which seems to have gone now for the most part. I don't know if any of this helps you.

Would you mind if I asked how the gall bladder flush works?

Hi everybody,, Im a 23 yr old male, 6ft 2 170 pounds, Very athletic ;) Anyways Ive diagonesed myself with silent reflux (LPR) due to my irrative throat symptoms such as feeling of something stuck in your throat, alot of burping, throat clicking, and voice weakness, Im scheduled for an endascopy next month, the specialist thinks its anxiety related and thinks theres nothing wrong with me despite my symptoms , just wanted to know have you experienced any of this?? becuase I have had this for 3 months now and its so annoying,
P.s I hardly feel any heartburn ! my throat is hypersensitve !This thing is pissing me off :( P.S im sceduled for endacopy in 3 weeks, Any tips or any sucess stories on ridding this condition??

I only have trouble swallowing dry foods, ill need to have a sip of water with dry food Only ! pizza with pesto sauce is awesome for me I can eat that normally and cheese sandwichs are easy to eat! yeah I cannot wait for my endoscopy to be done, 3 more weeks to go, I dont know what to expect from it, cause the main symptom that had that started all this was this globus sensation and tightness of the throat it hasant backed off, only sometimes it will ease when I am very relaxed ! I have a history of emotional stress !

Ive never tried gaviscon liquid, yet, and sugery to be honest I will never consider it ! I have hope in finding the problem and healing it !
