PH Probe

by Nanner1949, Jan 15, 2002 12:00AM
I just completed my PH Probe (24 hour study) and was told that I refluxed 213 times in lower channel and 27 times in upper channel.  My appt with my Doctor is not till next week.  Can anybody tell me if this is an extremely HIGH number of refluxes?

Yes, 213 episodes of reflux is a lot.  Your GI doctor will also look at the amount of time each episode of reflux lasted.  Good luck.
