I was initially only suffering after alcohol but after trying Omeperazole for a month - since I stopped it's now bad with anything I eat. Dreading going for a meal out as scared to eat or drink alcohol now.

I can relate to this yes.
I have a 5cm hiatus hernia which was found AFTER they removed my gallbladder. That was 2 years ago. Since then I swell every night, have horrific pain daily, pop pills after pills and feel rough most of the time.
When I eat I am rushing to the loo not long after, I cant go out socially anymore due to swelling like a balloon in my middle section, struggle to breath when it swells a lot and basically my whole life has changed.
Hospital have discharged me as they don't know what the problem is and basically my doctor just fills me up with more pills to swallow to try and keep it at bay. It looks like I am doomed to a life of misery and pain since no one knows or cares what the cure is
