Thanks for the reply. When i was even having bad acid issues, i did go to an ENT and they said there was no irritation that they could see. which i thought was impossible.. since i was refluxing...
I used to post on here about my annoying GERD symptoms. They have been great recently, over the past years I actually dont feel them at all. But then I was also unofficially was diagnosed with LPR so...
I was on tecta, stopped for side effects, Nexium, stopped because really bad heartburn still, and then Dexilant now... no heartburn, no pain, but still occsional refluxes! Doctor said its only been a...
This is simply out of curiosity. I have been on tecta for the first month of my GERD, which worked beautifully but had to stop because I had rashes all over my arms and legs. Womp womp. I am on now...
I put avocado on everything and OMG I think I'm allergic!! I thought this correlation was whack until I THINK it happened to me! I ate some avocado and cheese and got huge bumps on the roof of my...
for a few days now, I felt fine but the worst pain on the roof of my mouth + bumps.. it came after eating soft foods, so this makes no sense. The bumps left but the pain has been lingering for 3 days...
Thank you. I am making him see a doctor ASAP, I just wanted to get a direction as to what he could have, in hopes of scaring him a little to get up and see the doctor as quickly as possible. I think...
Im writing this for my boyfriend, since he doesnt seem to want to get help ASAP. I think he has some sort of IBS, but maybe its extremely mild. He's only 23. He has upset stomachs after eating ALOT...
If you haven't eaten, there's really nothing to irritate your tummy I'm assuming. My reflux was only really bad after food, no problems in between....
I don't think its the PPIs. My sister has told me how she read, thoroughly, how when you have an irritated stomach, eating things that may irritate it further (coffee, oatmeal, dairy, chocolate), may...
The instructions say its not to be split, crushed or chewed, but I really think 40 mg is too much for me. Does anyone know why they recommend not to? Thanks!...
Thanks guys. the bloating is the worst part but this only came with the antibiotics I took so I dont wanna jump to conclusions and blame it all on the acid, though my doctor says thats what excess...
I just came back from my doctors, and I told him my symptoms, the non stop burping, and the really bad bloating with occasional acid reflux. He prescribed me Tecta, a form of PPI, but i truly am...
Thank you guys so much for your responses. To add onto my list of beautiful ailments, I now have a UTI and am on antibiotics for that. Heres to hoping this doesnt completely destroy the progress I...
I am very sorry for the threads overload, I've just been googling ways to calm myself down and keep getting a million mixed messages so I thought Id ask one last time and come to a general consensus....
ATTN: I also dont want to start another thread, I just want to target what my problem is. I dont believe all of us suffer from the same issues at all, and thats why theres no miracle pill or miracle...
Sometimes, but I have also had a lot of anxiety issues in the past that help me deal so Im okay to eat. I dont feel like Im going to choke at all, its just after I've swallowed, It starts to to feel...
I think it happens the most dramatically after "trigger" foods... like pizza I had yesterday, and a tiny bit of chocolate I had today. But i mean really small amount, and so quickly that i dont even...
It's been a few days and all of my symptoms seemed to have gone, except a bit of the burping after meals but nothing as bad as it used to be when my issues started. Still managed not to have gone on...
Thank you all! I feel like I am not getting worse, but not getting better so it is kind of frustrating but at the same time still scary because I do feel like i have alot to lose. If I were getting...
You're not on any PPIs and no symptoms? This doesn't seem GERD related then, no? PS Physicians have told me that activia actually contains no probiotics, since the bacteria culture is dead way before...
I see. Thank you guys all. I should probably mention to my doctor that my stomach issues started when I started taking Naproxen (an NSAID) for my period and I would be taking it twice a day for a...
I see. I was thinking since my symptoms were so mild and I am not really in any discomfort anymore (except the dang throat pain!) I was hoping I would only need them for like a month at most. Is that...
Thank you Nara! Have you been on PPIs as well? Just another general question since i STILL havent seen my doctor (away til the 30th) But... I think so far my conditions are still very mild. My reflux...
Yeah I see where you guys are coming from. My mother told me she used to have bad heartburn issues in the past but ate well and got rid of it, she was my motivation. Ah this is just depressing, I'm...
Hey guys, follow up question.. Im getting almost no symptoms, just some burping but even thats been greatly reduced compared to when I first wrote the post. However, randomly after some meals I'll...
Thanks Alcie, good to know it does work for some. All I keep hearing about is how acid reflux has ruined lives.. and I agree, I am planning to see a gastroenterologist soon. I just dont know how I...
Bella, are you pretty much symptom-free now? the idea of pills scare me so much because I've been reading the forums and it seems as if people still have gastric issues even on the pill, and life...
Hmm weird I never felt that sensation. I had a piece of cheesecake and am finally feeling the dreaded heartburn except its supppper faint. I can barely feel it. Still stopped regardless. Cheers to a...
I think I'll try the aloe juice for the tightness although thats already a lot better. Now my throat just kinda feels like the day after a concert/you yell alot. Every time I think I'm getting much...
It is my actual stomach that bothers me. To be honest, its just burping and bloating that are really irregular. I also have throat tightness (food doesnt go down as smooth/easy as it used to) but I...
Thank you both for the advice! I was feeling extremely gassy yesterday so I took a digestive enzyme and that helped my bloated feeling. Today, my stomach felt completely back to normal until I had a...
So for about two weeks now, I've been having stomach/acid issues every single day so I think this is the start of GERD based on my hours of research. I conveniently was at the doctor a few days after...
