Great video! Some key points were highlighted that I hadn't heard anyone else discuss. Thank you!
I have suffered with acid reflux since I was 19 years old I am now 58 I live in the United Kingdom and the NHS just keeps throwing Omeprazole at me, for the amount of money that the NHS is spent on medication for me it would have cost half as much to do corrective surgery, I cannot understand why the NHS in the United Kingdom keeps going on about saving money when they want even perform surgery on people that would eventually save them money.
I'm glad you got your issue resolved because I know how bad acid reflux is

Thank you sir for letting me know I am not the only one with that chronic acid reflux
Me too.

Me too
Same..wake up choking, gasping for air many nights. I’m 42y/o female..been having this since late 20’s. Guess it’s time to get scoped
Please clarify…..what is the “magic surgery” that’s being referred to in this vid??
Probably Nissen Fundoplication, the most common one
I had Fundoplication procedureb n 2014 and I'm still coughing up Acid today 10/15/23. I can be talking and it will just shout up and out. What procedure did he have?
So what did they do in the surgery?
What surgery did you have?
I can't eat anything else than oats with water. I am so horrified. Have had this for 4 weeks, I don't smoke, drink or eat anything that is not recommended. I lost 10kg, I can't move anymore and I am really afraid to die from this, because I can't eat anything anymore. And they can't find anything. I had several bad infects, took pain killers and those seem to have kicked it off. I just don't know what to do anymore. My husband cries every night because he is afraid for me.
I'm desperate to stop gerd symptoms. I just have the urge and will throw up so much.
Glad he feels better god blrss
I literally almost choked and passed out from reflux while talking to a customer on the phone… jeez
😂😂😂😂
What exactly is "the surgery"???
I suffer with this. Often I awake and can’t breathe.
I had my first attack last night . How are you feeling now? How have you been dealing with it?
I have been going tru same for almost 10yrs too I need help too 🙏🙏🙏
Until now you have acid reflux
@@mariaramirez1067 yes
@@Onetime150 how didn’t you feel your acid reflux
What surgery ..?.
Is that the surgery where you wrap the stomach around the LES. I have heard it has a very low success rate and is risky. So this clip seems like a big tease.
Some People suggest for Herbal life for acidity. Pl comment
I took 1/8 teaspoon baking soda with 1/4 glass water and worked instantly . I recently started taking an over the counter med but honestly baking soda worked instantly as though it neutralized the acid. Is that ok?
Been dealing with GERD for 2 years now and it is so depressing to deal with. The last 6 months tho my symptoms picked up which put me in the Hospital and where i found i had Stage 3 Gerd and Esophagitis. Diet, Medication, home remedies. I've tried it all but nothing has worked. Zero chance i can live the rest of my life like this.
I feel your pain. I’m going through the same thing. I started seeing a psychiatrist who put me on Lexapro (anxiety) and Strattera (Depression) medications and it has helped for the last two months.
Seek both mental and physical help as I know the pain is brutal.
Psychological Stress,insomnia....root cause...get some anxiety medicine and go for outing
Pliz pliz, visit a gastro enterogist, I can see that you need an endoscopy
No telling of what procedure (surgery) was done or what kind of GI surgery was performed.
What surgery would that be called 😒
What surgery did you get done please? Was it the TIF Proceedure? Also , the patient says he was pleased with the procedure but doesn't explain how it helped exactly. That would be so beneficial to hear.
Same i need to know what surgery is that
I'm assuming it was fundoplication but I agree this video sucked for not stating the procedure.
@@iseeyou1312 Can't be Fundoplication- I had that procedure in 2014 and I'm still coughing up Acid today 10/15/23. I can be talking and it will just shout up and out. I agree, really would like to know what procedure it was.
When I drink applevinger my legs very painwhypleasereply
I never hear anyone talk about what they do in the moment during an acid attack.
I often wake up because stomach acid just shot up and I inhaled it by accident which is like choking on spit or water only it burns painfully while I either cough, huff or grunt it back out little by little, which also burns my throat more every time I do and so triggers a gag reflex. I have thrown up before because of it. But often I don’t because I have a fear of throwing up, and end up trying to not throw up, but still trigger a gag here and there, which only serves to make the experience more intense and frightening for me. As it causes me to try and suppress my attempts to hack up the acidic whatever’s in my air pipe. Sometimes we I drink small sips or water or milk, not knowing if it’s helping or hurting the problem.
About 45 minutes ago, I woke up having felt like acid shot up, but I thought I caught it and swallowed it back before I could inhale it, and that it was just the slight touch on my throat causing an intense tickle that woke me up. But then it slowly started burning still and I was huffing up acid from my air pipe still complete with almost throwing up and intense burning. It’s only just now finally dying down a little.
I was just wondering what the best thing to do during the moment was. Because I tried looking it up, and all I find are tips on how to try and try to prevent it. But nothing on how to react to it while it’s happening…
It just happened to te for the first time in 27 years, and i'm googling like crazy.
I woke up by vomiting in my mouth a little bit (i felt it coming in my dream), and i rushed to the toilet, my throat burns like crazy, and i spit a bit of blood in the sink. I sipped a bit of water aswell not knowing if it helps or not.
Now after 20 minutes my throat still burns a bit, and i'm afraid to go back to sleep.
It also feels like it awakened my asthma from the past, i mean my breathing is made a bit more difficult.
Is this normal? Please tell me what is it if you have experience with it. Thank you. 😫
@@Paulo34343 Sometimes my breathing feelings rattly afterwards which likely means I accidentally inhaled even just a little bit of it. That can make it hard to breath without coughing and when you cough and huff it up to try and clear it from your wind pipe, it can burn so bad it causes a gag reflex.
It feels like it causes mucus to build up in an attempt to coat the damaged flesh and so I have a lot of rough phlegm for a while as ab after affect.
The last time I had an acid attack was that comment I left here and it was so bad I have that phlegm for about a week. I would feel completely normal then mid speech feel a rattle cone up and have to take a breath to cough it clear.
@@Axxidousany treatment or progress you've made? I suffer the same. I can't sleep now. I am afraid acid will get in my lungs again and cause infection. This LPR took my life.
@@algarcia7896 Nope. No one has really given me any answers to this kind of question. The only thing I can say is I've been taking tums like crazy anytime I feel a bit of heartburn. Idk how that effects me but... I've also tried to cut out spicy foods as much as I can. I drink milk more often. I prop my head. Sleep on my side. Don't lie down for a while if I've eaten recently.
Even then I'm not sure if this is preventing anything or if I'm just lucky it hasn't happened again recently..
This is happening to me a lot, it’s agony and really scary. Literally feels like I’m choking on bleach and am going to die. Almost called for paramedics a few times as I can’t breath while I’m choking. My throat the next day feels really burned. I still can’t find any solutions what to do about it, I’ve tried all the usual advice like not laying flat, not eating late etc… nothing works😢
What was the point of this video. What a waste of time
Spoiler, never told what the surgery or treatment even was.
Clickbait for sure, totally pointless. Never mentioned what exactly he had done !
It stresses me out
yeah everyone wants to know what kind of surgery for it and no answer
I have acid reflux in my throat wat kind of treatment can I get to get rid of it can't swallow solid food
Its awful. I have constant dry mouth and feel awful..can't eat or sleep. I don't get a burning chest, mainly dry mouth, ears burn and throat a bit. Have trouble speaking cos of dry mouth. So stressed as can't eat.
I have the same problem, I went to my Dr and she said that she did not know what to tell me, that many people had the same problem. So, I went to the pharmacy and they gave me MOI-STIR, a dry mouth solution fr Pharma Science. I did not found it the best but it helps, specially at night when my mouth is like a desert. Go for tests.
@@s.cast.446 thank you. I'm in the uk so don't know if i can get it here. My breathing is also bad in morning. I am to have an endoscope test but don't know if it will help. I took a supplement it felt stuck i coughed alot an been like this since then. Its horrible. Have blocked nose problems breathing. Don't know if tests will help. Feeling scared
What kind of surgery is that
I have similar symptoms. Mine started after a dose of antibiotics. GI prescribed anti fungal and it helped 99%. Now I take gentian lutea drops before I eat, a natural food digestive. Also, stopped food triggers.
@@christinedennison7770 same here since pandemic start I had endoscopy chest X-ray ultrasound and went to ent they couldn’t find anything but what I find that I have very low stomach acid and stress
You should check your b12
What’s the root cause of this problem i.e gerd!..can anyone tell me? I m just 17 years old....and wanted permanent solution..oh lord..m seriously fed up...this is so painful...😣😣😫😫😖😖
Eat no acidic food, example citrus fruits... Also avoid spices like, bell peppers, onion and tomatoes, fats and high protein diets, these will only make you feel good, but not eradication of the root cause.
You run a test with your doctor to rule out H. Pylori or peptic ulcer.
Then you can treat is with baking soda in alkaline water and betaine hydrochloric acid...
Avoid all junk food too
Low stomache acid, immune system may be down or from stress
Pain killers play important role
Don't take ibuprofen so carelessly, something that I did and I regretted it
Please take acv for three days it saved my life
Godbless
Which surgery did u undergo?
TF procedure maybe
Fundoplication
@@abhinavsingh8660 Can't be Fundoplication- I had that procedured in 2014 and I'm still coughing up Acid today 10/15/23. I can be talking and it will just shout up and out.
Never tells you what surgery he had. no point listen
Agreed
ginger tea and barley helps me for shortness of breath and acid.
How often do you drink ginger tea and barley?
I suffer shortness if breath, and lots of gas. Can you tell me how you take this items pkease
Same😢
U just need to take Betaine HCL cause u have the lower stomach acid not over stomach acid.
What's that?
Not always the case HCL can make it worse
It's worth testing it out! You can neutralize with baking soda and water if it makes it worse. That and apple cider vinegar, water, lemon, and Himalayan salt has been helping me. I am just doing trial and error, but I do think it's better than the medicines doctors want to keep you on.
Useless clip they don’t even tell you what kind of surgery
I heard surgeries have a high failure rate. He will likely need another surgery in ten years.
Ihavegerd
Table spoon of Apple cider vinegar in half a glass of water , before you start eating , or during eating . Plus 3 Betaine HCL tablets with the meal . Works at 99% of the time . Dont lie down after eating sit straight . The key is more acid in the stomach not less .
@@Ninurtha1 does this eliminate it completely or does it just help with pain
@@ricksanchez6502 Helps digestion, and closes the esophagus ( valve ) shut so you don't upchuck (burp) . This eliminates GERD in most people . Helped me survive . By the way also add Pancreatin 4X tablet ( enzyme ) after 10 minutes of eating . You will have full nutrition from you food . I have done this for 15 years , can eat anything desired .
@@Ninurtha1 wow thanks . I actually got GERD a few days ago I didn't know it can last that long . But with your advice, I think I can manage it or even recover completely ( with medical advice too ) .
@@Ninurtha1 baking soda helps too.
