- ... and was told he has acid reflux and some inflammation in his esophagus. Would the Pepzin GI be good for him or is it just for gastritis patients?I don't have much information right now. He isn't even back home yet and I haven't spoken to him. ...
- I think I remember my rheumy telling me that osteoporosis itself doesn't actually cause pain. But the osteoarthritis does. So I have a LOT of pain in my hands, hips, groin, back and legs that I am assuming is from the osteoarthritis and my MS and...
- I've heard reflux referred to as regurgitation. This doesn't mean food actually comes back up right? Is it just acid that is "regurgitating"? I always thought regurgitation was like vomiting.
- It seems like my IBS is turning on me lately. More constipation... more pain after a bowel movement and more cramping below the belt. Think there will ever be a "cure" for this one? Our doctors can't even name it as a disease most of the time. ...
- I might have asked this but have forgotten.Would Pepzin GI be safe or good for cirrhosis? My husband has a weird hernia that cannot be removed because of his bleeding risk. He's getting a lot of tummy pain and hiccuping when he eats. He had...
- I'm not particularly fond of rice unless I'm eating Chinese food. Is there anything that's not yucky that I can eat to help fill the hole?My doctor told me to limit acid producing foods but has never told me to completely change my diet. I thought...
- Is osteoarthritis much different from arthritis? Aren't they treated pretty much the same way?
- How often do most of you have scopes done? So far I've only had the one where gastritis was diagnosed and I think it was about a year ago. Maybe a little less. So, how soon ( or if at all ) should another one be done to see if there is healing? ...
- Does anyone with constipation notice a terrible smell when you have a bowel movement? I've noticed this for a long time and the gastro just keeps telling me it's because I'm constipated.Some times I don't feel constipated, but just can't get...
- Will eating the wrong things make our conditions worse or just feel worse? I have gastritis ( mild, chronic ) and so far have not really altered my diet much. But certain foods are starting to bother me within an hour or two of eating them. I get a...
- Does anyone have a list of food that we CAN and SHOULD eat? I kind of know what NOT to eat but have a harder time shopping for the YES LIST.
- I just read this somewhere... maybe here but can't find it now. Someone said that acid reflux is felt while laying down and NOT when upright. Is this generally true? Does this mean that the burning throat might not be acid reflux if it doesn't...
- I can't get my head around the idea that milk is acidic. I always thought it was mild, although sometimes it does give me the squirts a little. Then again, I've read that some people recommend milk for heartburn. So, which is it?
- Ok.. here it comes. If I don't have a bowel movement absolutely every day I am miserable. I'm not actually constipated every day, but just can't get started... don't have the urge to go. Get cramping before and after a bm. I am taking Miralax almost...
- What are the best pain meds you have found? And what kind of pain do they treat?
