Hi, has anyone heard if you can get the Bravo Oesophageal test in Ireland instead of the awful Ph 24 hour test? I've only read about it on the net and it would appear it's only in USA. Seems a much more humane way of testing for acid content as they attach a clip to the oesophagus and you wear a belt round your waist for 48 hours. Every time you get any symptoms you push a button on the belt and they can then get a reading 48 hours later. Anyone got any feedback please??
Thanks

I haven't heard about this test.
The 24 hr test is a little uncomfortable.
Is this test better ??

Seems like its just a more modern version of the Heidleburg capsule and you still need to get it down your throat.

Thanks for the info. I've been on to that website and it's really helpful. Don't know if I can get it in Ireland but I'll let you know the results
