Getting desperate
Have had chronic silent gerd for 10 yrs give or take, untreated. 25.
It wasn't as bad after 3-4 years ago cut out junk food.
Anyhow aside from constant belching on any food or without. I later started getting lpr. Belching burns throat.
Lpr was most noticeable 2 months since because I got more burning in throat, voice very hoarse and damaged, and chest pain, sob, chest tightness. Mainly get it during sleep it seems.
I'm starting to get tickling coughs too.
A week ago gi doc said to take omeprazole and famotidine. Been taking.
I'm gonna try DGL hopefully it makes a difference.
But I'm doing everything right. Elevated bed, sleep 3 hrs after dinner, avoid trigger foods, lower stress, switched to small 2MAD diet, etc. It just doesn't seem to be making effect.
My night time reflux, even when sleeping 45deg keeps happening. I believe it's cause this persistent cp, sob.
Pcp said lungs are sounding fine for now. But I'm getting worried day by day.
I feel constantly tired and fatigued.
Anybody been through this and got better with something please 🙏 ?
