Home remedies

First of all you need to see a gastroenterologist. Heart burn is the stomach acids burning the fine delicate skin of the esophagus. How do I know? Because I have the same thing. But EVERYDAY!! I take Protonix 2x a day and then zofran for the nausea. Prilosec has seen good results as well. My story follows. Good luck to you

I have been "VERY ILL" for 10 weeks now with. I didn't know what was wrong. Just all of a sudden I had deep belches and rushes of Wind (yes wind) out of my mouth from my throat. Intensed burning in between my ribs going around to my back after I ate. I felt like my food was stuck above my stomach for a while and that is when the burning starts. After a while there would be some relief when my tummy would accept the food but then I think my tummy was so acidy from waiting that I was very nauseated. Ended up in hospital for a week where they did every test known to man and since my lipase was elevated slightly (115) they called in pancreatitis. However, the pancreas showed no signes of swelling, gall bladder was fine as well as every other test they ran....except.......the endoscopy showed a hiatal hernia, esophigitis and acid reflux. Well that was 3 weeks ago. I still have alot of discomfort. Nausea, no appetite (have gone from 131 lbs to 114 lbs in 10 weeks) tightness in tummy and just feel like poopoo because of the weight loss and not being able to eat much at all. I am on Protonix 2x a day and zofran for nausea after meals. In your experiences has anyone had it to this extent? If so what courses of treatment did you take. any help you can lend would be great. My personal email is gtvanilla@yahoo.com I have a appt follow up with my gastroenterologist today. I am thinking of asking him to repair the hiatal hernia unless any of you have a miracle cure. Thank you so much for listening. Hope to hear from you.
