I feel your pain, 2005 I had acid reflux so bad I lost 40lbs and looked sickly. I couldnt eat anything and had joint pain. But was unable to take anything so just suffered. I started eating healthy and it took about 1 year for me to get this under control. The nexium and prevacid did nothing for me, about 2 weeks ago my symptoms came back and I understand what your going thru. I am on a bland diet just to start. Feel better
There is a test available that will determine how well you can swallow. I'm not a health professional, but I suggest you talk to your doctor about it. Also, the fact that your nose and throat burn suggests to me you should see an ENT specialist as well. Keep us informed.
I had some of the similar symptoms your describing the doctor had an endoscopy done on me and found out I had erosion of the esophagus caused from acid reflux I have to go twice a year to have my esophagus opened back up because it keeps swelling shut
Hi and welcome to the forum.
May I ask, when did u have testing to determine how much acid ect u had?
There is another condition call Bile Reflux...the symptoms r similar but most of the meds will not help.
Please see ur dr to see if this is a possibility.
Please keep us posted on ur progress
