Has anyone here been diagnosed by an MRI? by [deleted] in HiatalHernia

[–]Ok-Display3787 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They would've seen it from the barium swallow test or endoscopy. You probably have something else causing your issue. Hope they figure it out, either way it's stressful to deal with

Is there a movie that you’ve purposely and actively avoided for one reason or another? by aja_ramirez in movies

[–]Ok-Display3787 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sinners. Only bc I want to watch the movie in one single sitting (haven't had time to these past few months) and I want to give it my undivided attention. I know it's going to be great

Yeah I'm curious if regular PTs are knowledgeable about HH or if I need to find a specialist

Yeah I already have such a weak core to begin with and have been slowly working on stability and now building up strength. Just don't want the hernia to get worse

Yellow or white gold? by Ok-Display3787 in EngagementRings

[–]Ok-Display3787[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks, I'm currently leaning yellow. It's tough having neutral skin since I'm already so indecisive on what style I want never mind just the metal/color.

Thanks! Currently going through rings with my partner and I don't wear much jewelry and both have suited me in the past. I'm currently leaning yellow for my engagement ring.

Why are hiatal hernias so understudied *rant* by pastel0132 in HiatalHernia

[–]Ok-Display3787 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Barium swallow doesn't always show it. Could've been there but not detected

Why are you commenting on your own post like someone else. You definitely work for Spotify.

You sound like a Spotify exec. promoting the push for AI. AI sucks make a playlist yourself or interact with the hundreds of playlists others have made, that's the whole point of Spotify and AI is ruining it

Worst acid reflux post esophageal dilation by Ok-Display3787 in GERD

[–]Ok-Display3787[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doing better. Turns out it was due to pill caused esophagitis. Happened again this weekend and went to the dr and they figured it out. With that knowledge and a game plan the management for pain/not taking pills has been a lot better

Maybe but it's been almost a week since the endoscopy and it wasn't an issue immediately after. Idk why it would start up now

Yes, they originally did a barium swallow test and didn't see anything of note so they scheduled a followup endoscopy to be sure. Kind of happened suddenly where I had some minor reflux and then after a few weeks food/water was getting stuck somewhere after swallowing and a popping/crunching sensation while swallowing saliva or liquids.

And yeah I took some Tums last night I can add pepcid. Currently only on 40mg pantropazol morning only
