In reply to sara golub. Well if I was you I would be doing my best to work on the IBS and constipation. Chances are that if you help and improve that you will help your GERD and gastritis.

Hi David,
I was recently diagnosed with GERD and a little gastritis. I have been told I have IBS as well. I am constipated on a regular basis. Because I have osteoporosis, I was told to take Pepcid and that it is the only med I can take. It causes more constipation. I just had a baloon plasty and can not take the nasal spray because it causes constipation. I asked if I can use saline. What do I do if I can not take Pepcid. I am vegetarian and have no idea what to eat now. Please advise. I see the ENT on the 28th and the GI on July 5th Am taking supplements for osteoporosis and am in therapy. I also have motion sensitivity

In reply to Ava. I'd suggest a avoiding common acid reflux trigger foods and follwoing a low acid diet like my wipeout diet plan. That should be your first form of action and looking into an alginate medicine such as gaviscon advance or reflux gourmet to be taken after eating and at bedtime.

Hi David,
I have a feeling of heated flumes/gas in my throat all the time no matter what prescription medicines I take they don’t help and I have to set up in bed at night to sleep or acid will come up. What do you suggest. I am at my wits end with this.
Thanks for any suggestions.

In reply to Adam Smith. Hi Adam, I would suggest a low acid diet like my wipeout diet plan. On top of that try to take gaviscon advance (UK) or reflux gourmet (US) after meals and at bedtime.

In reply to Adam Smith. Hi Adam, Consider a low acid diet natural diet like my wipeout diet plan. On top of that make sure not to eat big portions. Also consider fiber intake, if you eat a lot of fiber perhaps it can cause you some of these problems for example nuts which are high in fiber could cause or make things worse if you eat too many of them.
