any help appeciated

Hi

Not sure if this is right place to ask this.  But i went yesterday for my reflexology session.  At the end my reflexologist told me my feet are alot better than when i started going but she could tell from my feet that i have an upside down bowel, gut and stomach.  Any ideas what she may have ment by this? Should i see my doctor about this?
A bit of background info.  I have been experiencing acid reflux symtoms for a year and a half now.  Have experinced chest pains, stomach cramps, burping lots, pooing lots sometime diareahea like, sometimes constipated.  I recently had an endoscopy done which was clear.

Any help be appecaited.

Many thanks

Hmmm.....upside down bowel, gut and stomach based on your feet?  Sorry, not to offend you, but please consider the source; a Reflexologist.  This is not considered "real medicine" to me.

Your symptoms do sound suspicious of a gallbladder issue that will not be detected with a upper or lower Endoscopy.  GERD definitely can be detected with an Upper Endoscopy.  I am not sure which "Endoscopy" you had.

There is no way, in my opinion, that your feet could suggest anything about your digestive system.  I'd suggest you do some research about 'reflexology', consider the source, and then get medical help for your condition.  I'm glad your feet are better, but it is impossible for your feet to indicate your physiology.

  I have no idea what she meant, u may want her to clarify...and see ur Dr if u r having GI issues.

It can be low levels of  vitamins and minerals....poor absorption from our food....so do also look at ur diet.
