Hiatal Hernia will it ever stop hurting?
Posted , 3 users are following.
i had my endoscope last Monday and the repot was nothing wrong except for a small hiatal Hernia.
My doctor doesn't even want an appointment to discuss it, just next time I'm in!
well I'm in pain that comes and goes all the time. The pain is in my chest ( breastbone area) and no medication seems to work. Currently taking pantoprazole 20 mg morning and afternoon and rinitadine 300 mg in the evening. Pain usually comes on by about 8am everyday.
just taken codeine to get rid of it now, but I can't live on codeine.
i have had this problem since October, but it has been worse since XMAS.
IN NZ I don't think surgery is usually an option, but I can't keep living like this so I think I need to pay and have it done privately.
Anyone had sucess with just medication to get rid of the pain in their chest?

You need some anti-inflammatories(garlic/ turmeric); soluble paracetamol works WELL.lay off the caffeine. Water is one of the best remedies for stomach acid ; works immediatly- but you can't sip water all day i understand! Addres the PH balance of your stomach; perhaps lower than one might wish and take some digestive enzymes in the interim to digest fats and drink water;and book yourself in for an op.. try juicing some veg wtih olive oil and garlic and something like coconut wtaer from co-op..to drink instead. Take some fibre but not with milk. Tackling the inflammation is IMPORTANT - so you may want to try a herbal remedy (like boswellia serratta) as well as Omeg 3 oils.. wishing you the best ; but get that hernia sorted!!!
