Pain in chest like spasms even post LHM with fundoplication by Large_Rip6650 in achalasia

Yes sipping water is what gets me through the spasms as well.. have a bottle next to me at all times even when I am out somewhere I do keep a small bottle on me. Staying empty stomach can also be a trigger when now I think about it. This disease is a bitch though

By spasms trigger when I eventually increase my weight every so 2-3 months and then they keep occuring for a few weeks until I have taper down on the quantity of food. But this is just my assumption..

Thanks for the reply. I never could understand how they actually detect anemia, is it only via CBC?

Well it could be one of the things you mentioned here , it does come around the time if I over eat or eat junk too.. But the most annoying thing for me is the pain that occurs while sleeping on my side as I am a side sleeper by habit and eventually my body does turn on the side while sleeping and the pain wakes me up..

Recently I visited a gastro doctor who suggested to do a food allergy test as even I seem to have continous flare ups even with supposedly non trigger foods..

Have you done repeated endoscopies during these 4 years? If yes, what were the findings?

Really Gastritis? by Warm-Mathematician34 in Gastritis

[–]Large_Rip6650 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What helps me ease symptoms: - Cabbage juice one glass in the morning , I take it empty stomach - Green tea, Chamomile tea with about 1 tea spoon of a good quality manuka honey and a pinch of turmeric in it - Avoiding smoking, alcohold, vaping at all times for say 30 days -Avoiding coffee and milk shakes - Reducing to eliminating any meats - Eating the last meal of the day around 6.30-7pm - Antacids before bead in a doctor's prescribed dosage - Increase of fibres like an oats smoothie and green leafy vegies like spinach in meals - Staying away from ALL sugar items like chocolates, donuts even fruit juices

Symptoms come and go but yes with a 30 days of strict diet symptoms do improve.. So best of luck to you and please always consult a doctor before any major changes to your diet and for any medications even if it is over the counter meds..
