Hernia Support Group

There are several kinds of hernias, but the all happen when pressure pushes an organ (often the intestine) through a weak spot in a muscle face or wall. Treatment for hernias can be no treatment, to medicines to surgery. Modern surgical methods to treat hernias are much improved over older techniques and recovery times are much shorter.

I just found out that I have HH besides gastritis. Is anxiety, nausea, off balanced, lightheaded, tingling sensation , loss of appetite, muscle ache, muscle weakness, occasional shortness of breath, occasional flutters in my chest all part of the HH and gastritis?

Anyone feel lightheaded after eating?

What is working for others to treat both of these ailments? Thanks so much for your help.

Most of those symptoms dont sound related to a HH. Is yours a big one? You can be pretty uncomfortable with a big HH. A small sliding type you dont feel at all other than the reflux symptoms that can come with the hiatal hernia.

They sound more gastritis and reflux related.

With a HH your are more prone to heartburn and reflux and often you get gastritis too.

It is all about getting the diet to a really low acid and under control place and following all the GERD rules.

That will make you feel a lot better.
