Guest guest Posted July 26, 2008 Report Share Posted July 26, 2008 I was Dx'ed with GERD along with MS in dec of 2004. I just take PROTONIX everyday and it keeps the GERD under control I eat what I want and never have a problem. I have gone several days with out the Protonix once and paid for it dearly, with pain in my upper stomach. I try to never be with out it for more then 2 days now. Hope you get something to help your! Love to all, (ie from OK)katelloydkidz@... wrote: Hi all, Well, I was feeling a bit under the weather with a real bad sore throat; it got to the point I couldn't swallow real well. Finally went to an ENT today; he said I have 2 issues-one a very serious throat infection--the other, gastric acids that have come up and burned my throat real badly. There is a possibility I may have an ulcer or GERD; does anyone have a problem with either of these, and if so, what is the root cause, and what the heck do you do about it? I've noticed for about a month or more, upper stomach burning and nausea--not sure this is GERD or ? Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Guest guest Posted July 28, 2008 Report Share Posted July 28, 2008 Ohhh no, Kate. Ugh. How's the infection healing? And how is your gut?

Guest guest Posted July 29, 2008 Report Share Posted July 29, 2008 Swallowing is still a problem for me--especially liquids forsome reason. The doc wanted me to come back in a wk., soI'll go on Thurs. so he can see how/if it is healing. I peekedinto my throat--it is far less red, but the opening is real tinyit is all closed up, and I'm not sure why it is not opening up.Hopefully he'll have some good idea and know what to do.In the meantime I take my zantac and antibiotic (and pro-biotic so I don't get a secondary infection!-ugh!) Thanksfor asking, Challis. My gut seems somewhat better.love, Kate infection> > > Hi all,> Well, I was feeling a bit under the weather with a real bad > sore throat; it got to the point I couldn't swallow real well. > Finally went to an ENT today; he said I have 2 issues-one a very > serious throat infection--the other, gastric acids that have > come up and burned my throat real badly.
