Re: Oh, No!!!!!
Hope all of this can clear up sooner rather than later, Greg. It's amazing how much even drinking more water can help with things like this.
Take care!!!!! |

Re: Oh, No!!!!!
Get well soon Greg. As far as the no smoking part, I don't think I would be able to follow that request.

Re: Oh, No!!!!!
GERD sufferer here, too. Having had reflux, you can discover small things that the rest of the world might not pick up on, such as the taste of stomach acid, how to sound like that guy who used to do movie intros without intending to, the fact that if you eat enough Rolaids you will be constipated.
Protonix, Prilosec, Nexium... There are several acid pump inhibitors that do a truly wonderful job on it and approach the problem from a completely different angle than what our parents had to deal with this problem. It was transformative for me. I'm not normally a big fan of a lot of pills, but they can make your life much, much easier. If you can find a natural remedy that works for you fine, but these are wonder drugs so far as I am concerned. Long-term acid reflux can lead to increased incidence of cancers in the upper GI tract, so I wouldn't monkey around with fixing it.

I have a good friend at work that has Barrett's esophagus or something similar to it and can only eat very small portions of certain foods every day. He is basically miserable 24/7 no matter what he does. I certainly don't want to get to that stage. I'm going to lose 30# and keep it off this time. Haven't had a cigar in 2 days. Also going to start a regular exercise program when I get this chest crud cleared up. All in All, it's been a wake-up call for me to change my ways to improve my quality of life! Thanks again everyone for the well wishes and great advice!Greg |
