I am so scared right now. Nothing helps this awful reflux disease. I hate it so much. I am suffering beyond belief. I am in so much pain. My face, my ears, my stomach feel like it is on fire. I am not eating, once a day maybe. I lost 10 pounds last week. No doctor can help me, I have been EVERYWHERE. I have tried everything.
I just met the man of my dreams, my husband. God sent me a miracle, I've been praying for 7 years. I am scared this disease will drive him away. It takes my life away from me. I am tired of suffering. I want to be healed. Is there any hope? I have tried everything to beat this disease, and nothing helps. I can't even tell u the hell I live in with this.
If I had one wish I would wish to be normal. No one should have to suffer like this.
Please,
Gabby






Dear Gabby,
My heart really goes out to you and I am praying for you.
Believe me I know your pain, but God knows it even more. Call out to Him and He will come in and be your comfort. I have severe reflux also and have suffered as you are suffering now. There were times I did not want to live, it was that terrible.
A month ago I decided to go to a Naturopathic doctor. On the first visit he told me most gerd suffers are suffering due to allergies. I had a blood test taken to find out what foods I am allergic to, than I stopped eating these foods. Little by little I found myself getting better. and I can honestly say at this point I am feeling 80% improved. My meds are down to one pill a day. I was taking at least 8 Protonix & Zantac) with lots of Tums in between these pills. At this juncture I might even be able to stop taking any pills at all, but I am still a little afraid to give them entirely. May I suggest you go to a Naturopathic doctor and get tested for allergies. This could be your problem also. My husband decided to join me in my venture and he stopped eating the foods I am allegic to and he is also feeling better, not to mention losing almost 15 lbs. I've started to drink a little coffee from time to time, 7-up, tomatoes, and chocolate with no reflux reaction. A few times I ate a small amount of the foods I am allergic to and noticed a reflux reaction within a few hours. I wish you all the best and hope you will give this a try.
