  • Hi London Lass

    I suffer with reflux acid. Feels sometimes like I am having a heart attack. Last time I saw the Consultant I was prescribed Pantoprazole 40mg in the morning and Raiitidine 300 mg at night. Also take peptic liquid after every meal and before bed. Seems to have improved a little. My next appointment is 1st Feb. 

    I have a capsular contracture to the implant in my reconstructed left breast and am on the waiting list for its removal and replacement. Not sure whether the pain I am in is from the breast problem or the reflux still.

    Have you been referred to a gastoenterologist at all?

    Have never been sick in my sleep. It must be very distressing for you.

    Hope you can get it sorted soon.

    Love

    Sue xx

    Hello? Anyone out there? 

    Are we all suffering after last night's party? Very quiet so shout out if your there!

    Cheers

  • Oh Sal, I do feel for you. It must be absolutely horrid. 

    Perhaps, as someone suggested, you could ask for a gastroenterology consult. However, I would completely understand if you scream 'no not another specialist'. I did when I was told I needed to see an opthalmologist, and that was nothing to do with BC. 

    Of course every cloud has a silver lining and the silver in this is that at least you were getting some sleep. 

    Stay strong sweetie and don't stay away.
