i have been on every med. you could think of, had many tests done.doctors dont seem to now what to do and they dont seem to understand how bad it is.i have had this for about 9 years and i so tired of it . i have tried herbal but maybe not the right stuff. please if any one has any suggestions i want to try them.
Try drinking 2-3 ounces of water every 15 minutes til symptoms are relieved, or you start to slosh. The doctor that recommends this says dehydration is responsible for the condition.
Glutamine, DGL, Sano-Gastril, MSM, and monavie juice have all been tried with some kind of success for someone. Adelle Davis recommends you take high dose B vitamin complex and extra pantothenic acid.
Avoid foods that are highly acidic like ones that contain tomato puree and eat slowly. Acid reflux meds usually don't work instantly so you have to stick with them for a while (at least a few weeks). You could try Gaviscon tabs or liquid for immediate relief. Acid reflux is miserable
I watch what I eat and make sure none are acidec like tomatoes or oranges. I also at night sleep with my upper back in a somewhat sitting position but yet still lying down. just so that my body isn't flat or above my head. It all depends on your body what might work. I have acid reflux as well as a hiatal hernia which causes the acid reflux to be worse than without it. I sometimes if its bad eat some extra strenth Tums sometimes I eat them all day long but not exceeding 15 a day.
