Hi Mita, I'm great, thank you, re-introducing food on regular basis (stuff I was unable to eat for years are now going down like charm). I'm sorry your daughter has LPR - she's way too young for that...
All righty! The doc has a private practice in Novi Sad and I live 60km away. Heck, you could stay with us if you decide to come. Hope you moved to Denmark on time. I have a few friends who also got...
I'm so sorry you went through this and having a wrong person treating you is very disappointing. I've been there and my current doctor has done his best to keep my spirit up. In three years I only...
My first GI doc put me on Omeprazole and after 3 weeks I felt horrible, so I found new doc who eventually healed me and he was quite against the PPIs, but never say why, just that it wasn't the best...
Oh, sorry, I didn't understand you and I guess I still don't, but I'll try. It was kinda weird. When on full therapy I experienced soar throat etc. pretty regularly. But once I started with half...
Sorry for the delay, I was away. Prew, H2 blockers are acid reducers. I believe the brand name in US is Zantac. It's basically ranitidine, so you can ask your doctor or pharmacist. Gogo, I was on...
Thank you. I was on 300mg of ranitidine daily. My symptoms included loss of voice (only once, at the very beginning), my throat was very sore and dry, LOTS of burping, burning in my stomach and as...
Hi everyone, First of all I want to thank to both members and mods of this forum for their help and much needed support. I feel like I should share my success story and perhaps return the favour. So,...
My diagnosis is gerd, gastritis and dyspepsia and i definitely suffer from having/producing way too much acid. My GI doc is really great, but meds won't fix me and I'm more than scared of nissen, so...
Thank you all for your replies. Usher, I understand you're drug free? If so, it is huge improvement. I am trying to find a way to reduce symptoms and get off of h2 blockers....
h...
I do, and almost every single time. I believe it has something to do with your hormone levels, at least my GI doc says so. I'm just very careful about the amount of food I eat (I also follow the diet...
Today I asked my GI doc about this book. He said that the main idea has a lot of sense, especially in the light of very recent researches in this field, and asked me to land him a copy, so he could...
oops, can`t eat apples, sorry...
Good for you! :) I am really glad you are managing it well. I`m on h2 blockers (allergic to PPIs) for almost two years now and can`t get off of them. I see many people eat cabbage and I was told it...
Well, my GI doc thinks that things are not as simple as many people, including doctors, think. Changes in hormones level affect many other processes in ones body an that is why LES gets the wrong...
Willovercome, I`m very sorry to hear about your struggle. We all know how difficult it is sometimes, but you must stay positive. Regarding your question, I personally don`t know anyone with gastritis...
I drink plenty of water, but I noticed lately that some food make me constipated like veggies I had no problems with before and I was wondering if I developed some sort of food intolerance. I was...
Yes, I was really lucky finding a great doc. He also said that it is very likely my reflux won`t be an issue once the menopause is finished. I noticed that many people on this forum undergo various...
Hi VivianL, I`m sorry you suffer too. I only eat food that doesn`t trigger reflux and I`m doing fine with h2 blockers, but every time my cycle is about to start or end I get spasms. I eat roasted...
Hi everyone, i`m relatively new to gerd, I only have it for past year and a half. I`m 42 and in early menopause. Onset of gerd symptoms nearly exactly matched onset of menopausal symptoms. My GI is...
