Nobody?...
I was suggested I try it in order to improve esophageal hypersensitivity and stop my weight loss, which I blame on my PPIs intake. Has anyone ever tried it?...
Plus i haven't had any real benefit from the surgery just yet....
9 weeks after LINX and I can't even carry my books to school - let alone doing yoga or running 6 miles. We all heal differently, it would be a bit misleading to say otherwise....
Week 8 here, pretty much feel in the same way as you do....
Have you tried any medication? PPIs and stuff like that?...
Hi MMM I noticed you are big on natural remedies - isn't there anything out there that might help us deal with hyposensitivity? I am thinking anything that deals with nerve sensitivity would do, like...
I recently bought some slippery elm as I read it helps healing the stomach lining and it also seems to desensitize an hypersensitive esophagus. I have a couple of questions or regards of how I am...

Thank you Beach Girl. I have been following your journey and I certainly hope things get sorted out for you. DAY 4 - I might hold off the tomato a little longer, got a little reflux last night,...

@lovelovelovealways I am actually also glad I found someone who shares the same symptoms as me. Please keep me posted on what your GI tells you. Those symptoms are the main reason why I am planning...
I have experienced the same symptoms in the past five years, and I came to the conclusion that the acid coming back up in the esophagus somehow irritate the vagus nerve, which is located very close...
I live pretty close to Milan, you should add me on Facebook if you wish, you can find me as Stefano Morello (I got a black and white profile picture, it should say I live in Naples as I'm studying...
Yesterday I had my first appointment with professor Bonavina in Milan (one of the key surgeons in the LINX trials) and I was surprised to find out he suggested I could try the Stretta procedure...

Hi Pat Fill, may I ask how your neighbor is doing? Thank you...
