Hiatus Hernia and Gerds

Posted , 6 users are following.

I have suffering from Acid reflux for over 6 months and my doctor finally agreed to do an endoscopy and biopsies. I was diagnosed it's having GERD and a hiatal hernia. I was given pantoacid and Itopide as my prescription mad.I have started cutting down on foods that I thing trigger the reflux. Recently I have started having pain in my back as well when I am having the reflux and hernia pain. It's unbearable and J feel I cannot sit in any position.

Does anyone gone through this??

    Hh comes with so many things it sucks! I m in pain everyday. Sometimes bearable ,other times not on at all . And it's almost impossible to accept the diagnosis 100% as I always think the doctors must have missed something. Horrible!!! But you can manage it.

      I fear the worst! I am back on meds again for another month after seeing my doc this week. Pain has been bad. I have been feeling really gassy and nauseous. The burping has increased. My stool has been loose for the past few days.

      Doc says nothing to worry about

      Nerve wrecking!
