Guest guest Posted February 26, 2008 Report Share Posted February 26, 2008 Hello, my remedy is a glass of milk,it always works for me.And if it is really bad,then I drink the milk,and then lay on my stomach for awhile,I just figured that if it works (sometimes) for a colic baby,then it should work for reflux too,and it always works.

Guest guest Posted February 27, 2008 Report Share Posted February 27, 2008 > Does anyone know a good, fast remedy for reflux? Guess it's all > the stress. Yes. A good GI doctor. I'm serious. Reflux, especially long term reflux, can be serious. If this is a once-in-a-blue-moon thing handled with tums or prilosec, it may be fine, but if it happens a lot, it can lead to erosion of the esophagus and Barrett's syndrome, which is a precursor to esophageal cancer. I burped and had heartburn for years, and when I finally got it taken care of, it looked like someone had taken a razor blade to my upper stomach and esophagus. A couple of years ago, when my insurance co. screwed me around with my Aciphex, I very nearly ended up with Barrett's. This is really something you don't want to fool around with.

Guest guest Posted February 27, 2008 Report Share Posted February 27, 2008 *OTC products like pecid ac, prilosec, cimetidine. All doses taken otc can be doubled to equal a prescription dose. I also use ginger capsules, but recommend taking an otc product and eating first, before using them.* > > On Feb 27, 2008, at 12:57 AM, jenniesattic@...<jenniesattic%40aol.com>wrote: > > > Does anyone know a good, fast remedy for reflux?

Guest guest Posted February 29, 2008 Report Share Posted February 29, 2008 I just remembered my mom would always swig a liquid antacid like Mylanta or there was one that began with an R. I hope you find something to help without causing you the yeast problems. Take care. Jeanne in WI Thanks all for the ideas. I've been a little concerned about trying some of this things b/c of yeast/candida. I know Axid used to cause yeast overgrowth not sure about the others. Regarding the seriousness of this-I fully understand. I don't have it very often and haven't had it for months until this week again. Will keep a close eye on it-I assure you. Thanks for the concern! I appreciate it! ~Jennie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
