Acid Reflux??

tybeeanna · 09-11-2008, 06:23 PM

I started L/C in June and have now had to go to a once a day treatment was just once in a while that I would use a chewable.

It was/is so bad that the back of throat and tongue would burn eating anything with vinegar. Any one else having new or worse reflux since starting L/C .

Oh you poor thing. I hate reflux! Mine's gotten a bit better LCing. My doctor told me losing weight would definitely help with reflux though so I've been hoping it will go away when I get down to my healthy weight range.

I don't really have any advice unfortunately. I hope it get's better soon though!

My reflux completely cleared up with low carb. Are you still drinking diet sodas?

I'd try eliminating things in sequence and only gradually adding them back to see if I could find any diet triggers. It may be totally structural for you, however. I hope you get some relief soon. Keep in good contact with your doctor and don't try to cure yourself by yourself at this stage. You need to get it stopped and to heal before you go any farther. Hugs

I highly recommend pro-biotics and digestive enzymes for you. Don't let this go. Barretts Esophogaus is a scary thing and you don't want it to turn into that.
