Hello everbody out there, after suffering for the past 2 years I thought I was finally on the mend, but for the last 2 weeks my throat pain has got a lot worse. I am on ppi's and have been back to my Dr. I am hoping to go away for a few days so I am looking for something that may help whilst I am away. Has anyone any suggestion as to what may help by way of a drink or something to suck just so I can hopefully enjoy my short break.

Many thanks

Robin

    Robin it appears you may have reflux laryngitis. You need to ask your GI for a motility and a pH test after you come back. Make sure you eat boiled vegetables and less meat on your trip. Meat usually increases inflammation.

    Would rennies or gaviscon be of any help ? But as you say it is your throat that hurts. I hope someone will have a few tips that work for you and post them.

    I would recommend Gaviscon Advance and Aloe Vera juice. They should help you not suffer as much.
