Does GERD have to do with this.....

by wife_of_a_firefighter, Feb 27, 2008 09:35AM
About 3 years ago I had a camera ran down my throat. Only to discover I had acid reflux and my throat was damaged and so was my esophagus...Here recently I had a bad chest cold and maybe a sinus infection with a yucky cough...Well that was about 1 1/2 weeks ago..My cough is better but still here...Anyway ever since I got sick, I have been vomiting up nothing but mucus...And the past 2 days it has turned into a morning sickness type of vomiting...Im tired, i have had heart burn and my lower right side , kind of where my liver is I have a slight peircing pain....???? I have had my tubes tide for 5 years and I was also diagonosed with endimetriosis (spelling)....The weird thing is after I vomit, I become extremely hungry, of course, and I feel alot better..Until the next morning...

With that kind of damage to the esophogus from reflux, I assume you are taking some kind of proton pump inhibitor medication like nexium or aciphex?  If not, you really need to get back on it.  You can use Prilosec over-the-counter in the meanwhile. Time to see your doctor again.
