See my other posts for more information. I have recently found that taking a teaspoon of bicarbonate of soda in a carbonate drink has been of great benefit in stopping bile reflux. The burning throat is typical of bile reflux. I tried your idea in water and it helped they had me on the wrong meds I knew it! Every time I took my ppi I got heartburn and pain. I have discovered baking soda tablets on Amazon. I take two of those before bed and no more drinking the nasty stuff. If it's really bad, I also take a dose of Lily of the desert Aloe herbal stomach formula.
Hope this helps. Hi i can not locate these products can you help with this acid reflux isent fun at all wakeing up in pain is not some thing i want for ever thanks so much. Something has changed, and it really needs to be checked out. It might be that there is something causing extra reflux, or it might be bile. But the whole principle behind taking medication long term is that it should be reviewed and checked every so often, ands you do need to persist until it gets resolved. My cure for acid reflux and oesophagitis.
You start with apple cider vinegar unfiltered raw with the mother , ginger turmeric cayenne pepper freshly squeezed lemon and limes,orange and and or grapefruit do enough to make about a pint, and add a half pint of water keep in fridge. All 3 just a tip of a teaspoon cayenne pepper is really hot,then add the juice about one inch in the glass take this twice a day before meals it goes against the grain taking a drink that's so acidic but that's why it works it takes about 2weeks to kick in and it's not very nice to drink ,you may get a bit of upset belly for a couple days while you are doing this just take a a antacid not pp inhibitors please let me know if u r going to try and if u do let me know how you get on all the best fina's.
So basically you take everything possible that will cause heartburn and discomfort? That's just idiotic! I hope nobody tries this! What they do is shorten your life u need to do some research and stop being so idiotic. Hi watkinss2 have u managed to do any research on PPI's and acid reflux.
These antacids only giving a false sense of relief. In the process the disease severity continues to grow. Ultimately it reaches a stage where even the false relief is not visible. Your best solution is managing your diet. I experienced something similar and may be able to help! I've been on PPI's for almost 10 years, nexium, then zoton then lansaprazole and for the last 4 years - omeprazole.
They always worked despite the fact that i used to take them at night, no knowing this was not advised for the first few years. Then, randomly, when I started exercising 2 years ago and switched to a lower carb diet - and began eating very healthily. All of a sudden, LOTS of heartburn.
My doc switched up my medication and nothing seemed to work, was literally crying every day, an endoscope showed my esophagus was covered in burn marks and the surgeon suggested getting the nissen fundoplication - I'm quite terrified of surgery so made a decision to get to the route of this. I made 2 huge discoveries.
Also, some brands of Omeprazole don't seem to work as well, I've no scientific evidence but I'm convinced it's whatever the capsules are made of. I'm not sure why I struggle to break these down but I recall when I was taking Zoton which is dissolvable I never had problems until I took the generic brand which came in capsule form. For some reason, even adhering to all of the above mine seem to be failing again, but i've been eating a lot more fiber so I wonder if I can lower the amount of time I wait before eating.
Would love to hear a physicians opinion. Hi Louphe, Sorry for all the trouble you have been having. My problem with severe acid reflux even though I was taking omneprazole 20mg seems to have resolved itself as my doctor suggested I reduce the dose to 10mg. I believe after taking 20mg for about 20 years my body reacted and found it too strong for some strange reason and am feeling much better on 10mg. Possibly I'm not producing so much acid!!
I don't know, just a guess!! Have you tried taking your omneprazole in the morning? It all started with acid reflux for about a year and a half, taking Tums and thinking everything is alright. Until I started noticing my acid syotoms getting worse. After all that time, I finally went to see a gastroenterologist and performed an upper endoscopy. He found my esophagus swollen from the acid creeping up past my sphincter. He also saw small erosions in my stomach.
