Gastro Reflux :(

Gaviscon is good for acid reflux/heartburn but I am sure that u know about that.

Omeprazole is not good to take long term because of side effects etc.

Try and eat many hours before going to sleep.

hi I was put onto Lansoprazole when I had a similar problem to you. that seems to have worked for me. Hope this might help and best of luck

I had acid reflux for years and although medication helped a lot in the end I had my gallbladder removed as it was full of gallstones and two were stuck in my bile duct. I no longer suffer from reflux.

Thanks John  and every one, I to have gallstones , in 2016  1 was stuck in the bile duct and I got Pancreatis and was in hospital for 5 weeks, my gall bladder should have been removed but other complications set in  and I had abesses on the liver while in hospital so they could not do it , I have another appointment to see the surgeons about removing the gall bladder, but I think  from the anethestis`s side it would be dangerous , I was going to cancel the appointment , but your  reply has made me think again.

But the HT does make GERD worse for some people  and I have suffered with it for a long time.

I've been a lot better since having the gallbladder removed.  A bit up and down with the bowels department but that's only for a short period while your body adjusts. It didn't help me as I got shingles two days later. Hope all goes well for you.
