Dizziness caused by acid reflux

I posted a nice informative bit of information a few minutes ago

NOW this site shows NOTHING

its as if my reply wasn't even accepted.

I give up.

I hit the REPLY to WEEBEE button

and my post did not show up

is there a REASON for this

or should I simply quit now?????

Ive had reflux for two years now, swapped between all kinds of medications, now daily i take esompeprazole, ranitidine, rennie and on a weird diet. The dizziness was the first symptom I went to the doctors about before finding the cause was reflux. I find the dizziness is a lot better with daily Esompeprazole in the morning (not omeprazole) and really avoiding fatty acidy foods!

I also found being on so many antacids makes me pick up so many bugs I never did before. I've had two stomach infections and several others this year whereas I never had any before, having no stomach acids not always a good thing!

Hi All! Need some advise. I have had stomach pains for the last 9 months. It comes and goes it causes fatigue and dizziness, I get nausea and sometime have the shivers like cold fever with extreme stomach cramps . I have had a colonoscopy, swallowed the camera, 2x blood tests and a CT scan and nothing was found wrong my Appendix is not showing on CT scan even though it has not been removed. I have fainted twice at work and at the moment I am up in arms not sure what is causing it. One doctor says its Appendicitis and my appendix must come out, but specialist says its not and isn't going to operate. Hope someone can give advise as i'm  up in arms now.             

Greetings and hello everyone.

Well the past few months for me has been quite the adventure. I’ve had dizziness, lightheadedness, nausea, dreaminess, stomach aches, chest pains, headaches, shoulder pains, felt removed from reality, shallow breathing, balance issues, ears popping, weak legs, extreme fatigue, a cough, mucus and terrible sweating - I thought my time was up. 

I am a healthy tall fun 38 year old male in London btw. I had CT scans, MRI, X rays, Gastroscopy and Colonoacopy and hey presto - stomach hernia, H Plylori, acid reflux and oeosphogitis. I feel so unwell and I look fine, most of my family and friends don’t believe how bad I say I feel and I’ve been told it’s anxiety sooooo many times too. 

My quality of life has dramatically dropped and I can say that I almost feel disabled. I’ve started an alkaline vegan diet as well as dozens of supplements like slippery elm, gaviscon, lungwort, ginger root and ordered many more. 

There HAS to be a cure for this nightmare! I’m currently sitting on a sunlounger in Africa but feel like I’m dreaming reality. It’s awful.... 

Hi weebee, I am 50 and had gone through what you have described since 2012, shortness of breath, chest discomfort, throat discomfort, back pain, chest pain, join pain, dizziness, light headed, headaches, bloating, tiredness. I am smoker and overweight, I have done many medical check out and everything normal, doctors think I have chronic fatigue syndrome and acid reflux. I have also tried many gastric medication, diet and supplements but none seems to work long term. I have even tried antidepressant under doctor's guidance and it didn't work either. I normally feels healthy in between episodes!

My symptoms seems to be going away after 4years but some seems to be coming back again lately due to my busy schedule! Else I would not get onto this website. 

Those episodes are scary most of the time but last mostly less than many hours, it hinders my energy and motivation greatly but didn't seem to harm me after it's over! 

I guess, it is very irritating and scary, and recently, I think protein supplements really can cos it to come back for me. There are other things I usually avoid now like coffee and tea, heavy meals, alcohol, spicy food, heavy smoking especially causes it.

Anyway, I am back to normal life despite still encounter less scary episodes now . Some doctors said there is no cure but it would cause much damages to my body and it will go away. It reduces after 4 years for me, so hope yours will deminish soon

Morning weebee iv just registered with this  site, iv been suffering with acid reflux for about 9 months now but have been experiencing other symptoms I get all your symptoms which in itself has given me some comfort as I was beginning to worry there was something serious going on, I am however going to make an appointment with my GP to confirm this, because as some people are saying once they taken there meds ( I’m on omeprazole ) my acid reflux settles but my other symptoms remain periodically throughout the day 

Exact same symptoms I am hoping that someone can tell me what they did to improve their symptoms.  

I had several of these symptoms. I had read so many conflicting things about omeprazole and famotidine. I started drinking bone broth and started doing the AIP diet and ate fermented food. I also checked my iron levels as it is common for your iron to be low and to have absorption issues when you have gastritis or reflux. I then went off the omeprazole and I am doing much much better. I did get a scope done and also found out I have a hiatal hernia.
