Hi I am new to this site. Can anyone give me any advice of how I should treat my Sliding hiatus hernia, which is causing me chronic bad back pain. I am taking meds from the doctor but not helping. Any advise would be gratefully received. I want my life back again.

Hi Shirley
I have tried everything and I find eating mints and icecream has helped! It's an awful condition and you are always worried about everything you eat! Porridge is good in a morning and ginger biscuits too

Hi Shirley,
I had a sliding HH too and reflux, I had it for as long as I can remember back to childhood I remember symptoms, I was taking 40mg nexium, ranitadine, gaviscon and was still having symptoms,
On the 8th of June this year I had had surgery to fix it all, I'm still not 100% but I'm laying down at night with no discomfort now, I don't have burning feeling anymore, I still am a bit sore tho and can't eat more than a child portion of food at a time, but on my consultant advice to stop any damage caused by the acid ie barrets, lung problems and damage to my voice box I went ahead with the op.
I hope you can get sorted out, good luck.
Margaret

Hi Shirley,
I had my operation in the Royal Berkshire hospital in Reading on the NHS. If you want to have a read of my post op blog it is somewhere on this forum site. It takes a while to convince the GP to refer you then I waited ages for the hospital to get funding sorted etc.
I'm going to have a blood test tomorrow just to check everything is going OK.
Best wishes to you.
Margaret
