Gerd/Lpr - Is it worse temporarily or permanently?

I have had GERD/LPR for 3 years now. Early this year I increased my Prilosec from 20mg to 40mg when symptoms became unmanageable. I rely on protein and and tolerated fat for calories, and I use a couple of supplements, but most cause reflux. I've learned to live with this small diet after years of dealing with inflammatory bowel disease which taught me how to live eating minimally.

But here I am again, the GERD/LPR has decided last week that it doesn't want me to eat protein or fat - of any kind. Since the onset, all vegetables are a problem, anything green causes the most problems, so generally I can not eat a vegetable. Most fruits also cause symptoms so I was eating these minimally. Wheat, oatmeal, and breads of any kind are not good for ibd, but I have had to try these on occasion recently when LPR/GERD symptoms would not permit me to eat anything else.

My choices right now for the least amount of reflux is cantaloupe, grapes, blueberries, and almond milk. That's it.

My thought process is to ride this out eating these few fruits and hopefully the increase in reflux will subside...but this isn't likely is it?

MY husband and I own a small business. It's hard to get medical care with all our operating and living expenses. I have a good GI doctor but he is expensive and 3 hours away so I've been managing my reflux on my own for the last two years.

I feel that I am hanging on only by the grace of God.

I am so sorry I forgot to ask you, have you done Endoscopy, have they mentioned to you if you have Gastroesophageal reflux disease as GERD and hernia hiatus. Please give me much as information about those and any others.


As well have you been checked for the Helicobacteria Pyrl by any chance. let me know

Dear Nina,

Your malnutrition is as you states is a poor diet that does not contain the right amount of nutrients you have.

As I had 2 years Helicobacteria Pyrl that was untreated that time, I become very weak and had bad apetite and as you said malnutrition, as myself doing dieting alot, I do eat very less as boiled chicken, and fish as in oven to grill it, I don't eat much as fruits because most of them containts to much acid, I do eat apple and carrots, Celery. I am very weak as myself a lot and I am trying not to take PPI as I have test for to come soon and I do not want to take it in future if I want to heal it by strengthening my stomach as slim as hard that would eliminate acid reflux as completely. If you need any help with weight loss as to slim your stomach, I can try to help you with specefic methods for exercise, even at home.

Listen this might be occurred and confusing for you and a challenging, but you can try methods that would help you for acid reflux, but for me I can't have those things because of 24h monitor I need to do, when I finishe I will start as myself.

First: Green Cabbage juice is good thing for two treatmens is: stomach ulcer as also known as gastric ulcers, that is develop on the lining of the stomach. This also helps with Acid Reflux as serious reflux problems that people have and many people don't even have it anymore. But remember to have less as 100ml as twice a day as everyda, but remember to mix Green Cabbage juice with carrots and celery: Do not drink Green Cabbage juice only, it needs to be mixed with other stuff as I mentioned there.

Second: Potato Juice: I know you are shocked and surprised of it but Potato Juice helps to heal Gerd. Its good to have in early morning only before you have your breakfast. Remember its up to you if you want to mix it with carrots and celery and apple as all juices, but you can also have it Potato Juice only, its because of the taste is different.

Here is how to make Potato Juice as it shows in youtube: http://www.youtube.co/watch?v=PwD9hrNzGBc

Please, Please, watch it carefully that how he is making it and what is the instructions of what to avoid.

also a little different way to clean it that I got from this site as Instructions: http://www.ehow.com/how_8374594_juice-potato.html

Goodmorning Nina,

sorry for the delay message!

Sorry for as well I did not read well of your first post you made!

I am more worried about you now of your condition! as I know now that your vegetables is effecting as well for the Gerd. But Green Cabbage and Potato can really help you to eliminate the reflux, but as you stated that you can't tolerate, hmm may I ask, have you by any chance done a stool sample for Helicobacteria Pyrl. If you know Helicobacteria Pyrl it causes significant problem for acid that mix is and creates a acid reflux and other symptoms.

Dear Nina

GI deals more with Gerd as acid reflux, but when they do Endoscopy, they take a sample as biopsy to see if you have H. Pylori. If you want to see if you have H. Pylori , you need to go to your GP Doctor or in Reception and ask for a plastic tube so you can make a sample of your stool.

Nina listen to this news of autoimmune. Title is: Breakthrough hope for MS treatment as scientists discover how to 'switch off' autoimmune diseases

Listen your ideal problem is look at your major problems you have and deal with each by time.

My PH test has not been started yet but my GI doctor has wrote a letter to the hospital as referal to see when I get appointment .

Hi Nina

Sorry for delay messaging you!

Sorry to ask you, would you just confirm me this questions for me!

Have they told you that you have Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease? Yes or NO

Did they confirm you that you have hernia hiatus as when you had done a Endoscopy!?

Do you have white cotton tongue?

Have you done 24 hours ph monitoring test? If Yes than: do you have a Low Stomach Acid?


You said: It sure sounds encouraging for those with MS and type 1 diabetes doesn't it? I am not sure but it only says as it will switch off’ autoimmune diseases completely.
