After many years of gerd ,I have had all apropriate test done by a reputable ( nissen ) surgeon.he said I'm a perfect candidate for a toupet ,due to weak swallow of course. I have taken ppi drugs for 20 or so years.i have tried to come off these drugs many times but to no avail!!! I have never tried a drastic diet change ,like the Kaufman diet or anything similar though. According to my surgeon my les is not doing much and I have a small hh. My question is is it possible to get off the meds by changing my diet or is surgery or meds really my only option ? I have tried some holistic things over the years without success. I'm 44 and am afraid surgery won't last forever.
