Hello Guys,

It all started about 2 months ago in the middle of April, I was eating some strawberries and laid down right away and all of a sudden felt like a weird sensation in the middle of the chest.

When I was 12 I remember the very first time I ever had heartburn. I woke up from a nap and had sourdough bread. I remember thinking I was gonna die. I never felt this before. My mom said there was no way in hell that I had heartburn at 12. She gave me a tums and we went on with our day. 

From then on I would get heartburn fairly often. At least once a month. I just took some

I am recently diagnosed and it has been a long road tryi to figure out what was wrong with me. My old PCP keep insisting that nothing was wrong and all in my head but yet wouldn't mind prescribing nausea meds and anti diarrhea meds. So I finally switched to a new PCP last month and she immediately knew what was wrong and set me up with a gastroenterologist who ordered my stomach studies. Now th

Hello all! I was diagnosed with GERD in February 2020. My symptoms started around October 2019, leading to an urgent care visit after Christmas due to severe nausea. This is one thing you don't see much, as nausea usually isn't one of the prominent symptoms. I almost never get heartburn or actual acid reflux (very grateful for that!). That's only due to a careful diet and medications however, a

Hi, I have been dealing with gastrointestinal issues since I was 12 years old. I am now 25 and every year my issue seems to get worse and worse. I am now in pain and uncomfortable every day.

I had a tentative diagnosis of IBS by way of elimination.  It started with a diagnosis of Enteropathogenic E. Coli and a prescription of ciprofloxacin to cure it.  The antibiotics made it better, but the symptoms of loose stools didn't go away.  The next trip to the doctor (an infectious diseases specialist this time) resulted in a diagnosis of Enteroaggregative E. Coli, and a pr

I have been reading these stories for years, thank you to all who shared. Time to give back.

Hello...

I had GERD, dysmotility and dysphagia (difficulty swallowing). This was relieved by having my root canal teeth taken out. Each root canal tooth has about 5 kn of tubules which can be infected. The tubules are a safe haven for disease because the blood supply can't get in to "clean" the area. My son recommended a youtube video called "voltage is healing" which helped me. 

I suffer from gastroperesis and I found that it was my antidepressant Effexor/venflaxin was the problem. So I was weaned off by my dr. of it and I’m so much better. I couldn’t eat, lost 30 lbs, vomiting daily. I can eat small meals now, stomach still blists and I have back and abdominal pain but nothing like before getting of Effexor. I am 100% better than I was. Please look into it

Hi, I’m Rhea, I’m 17.

On October 8th, I had surgery to get my wisdom teeth out. For the next few weeks, I was on every medicine you could think of. Tylenol, Ibuprofen, Hydrocodone, Antibiotics, the works. I was constantly drugged with something, so I was constantly putting chemicals in my stomach. About a week after I was taken off the meds, I started to get burning pa

My issues started in 2009 and it all started with persistant diarrhea, indigestion, heart palpitations and nausea. I was working a full time job and struggled to make it through each day with the diarrhea. They prescribed every drug for reflux but they only made the diarrhea worse. Eventually the diarrhea slowed down after taking Protonix  and severe constipation kicked in which prompted m
