Acid Reflux

[susiep40]

I had open surgery 11 months ago for acid reflux which obviously involves a large incision and ever since then I cannot lift my left leg so much so now I have to get around on crutches.  I have severe neuropathic pain where the surgery was carried out which I have to attend the pain  clinic for.  The surgeon says that he can open the wound up and and take out some of the stitching and re-do which should sort things out hopefully and the leg will get better in time.  I am really desperate and looking for some assistance.  Have not been able to work since the surgery since cannot sit upright in chair for more than 20 mins and every time I do some housework or cooking the pain gets worse.
Anybody out there that can help me.  I am from the UK/

See and Internist.  Ask about taking Malic Acid with your meals and taking Digestive Enzymes just after.  Your gerd may really be due to a lack of acid and or enzyme production.  Then ask to try to be weened off the antacids.  Good Luck!
