I take meds (protonix I think - there have been so many), which help, but they only kill the acid, not stop everything from going into my throat (weak sphincter). So basically, it feels like I have the post nasal drip from hell in the back of my throat.
Now if you make the coffin where I can keep my head raised, that's completely different.
As an aside, I've discussed surgery a couple times, but the last time (years ago), they basically said it only works for like a decade and you can't throw up. Even the doctors were pretty meh about it. Anything changed? How was your experience?
For me it's kinda like lasik - I have contacts that give me 20/10 vision and I'm so used to them, why risk it. With Gerd, I have meds that work and the only thing that really sucks are the cavities and waiting for breakfast. So is it worth it?
That's great that it worked for you!
I game never heard of the turmeric, but I'm all ears for getting off of meds. Thank you immensely for that too!
