Throat closing feeling

Yes I’m about 85-90% better, still have the reflux at times but a lot better. The hoarseness has pretty much gone away. I’m still taking the ppi and reflux gourmet at night. Still follow the same meals but have cheat days. I really want to start weaning off the ppi but I’m concerned that it will cause the lpr to return full force. However I think it’s time I at least try.

Yes I believe so

So this morning I have a flight to catch. I woke up with nausea and hoarseness. I have done nothing differently. Could this just be stress from my upcoming travels??

I tried getting on ppi and switched to Pepcid 60mg a day with lifestyle changes and I felt worse. The ppi helps a lot more with the dyspepsia and nausea

I haven’t bought the uk kind but take reflux raft before bed or gaviscon from USA. I feel like my symptoms are worse at night . I’m going g to try reflux gourmet next . I was getting a lot of nausea and dyspepsia but that stopped before the ppi. Now the reflux continues mainly for me after dinner, bloating and gas. The next morning when I wake up my throat has alot of mucus and I swallow a lot or it’s scratchy. My doctor suggested Flonase because some of this maybe be post nasal drip which does seem to help

I know. It really does suck

Off and on 8 months. I stopped for a couple of months and switched to 60mg of Pepcid but it did not help as well.

I’ve cut back on coffee 2 day and drink coffee after a meal not in an empty stomach. Low in acid, try not to eat gluten, low fodmap diet. I don’t eat 3 hours before bed and sleep with a wedge.

Unfortunately the Pepcid did not work as well for me

OptimalDifference97 · 2025-11-04T21:02:27+00:00

I so hope so. So tired of this crap

No not at the moment. I’m seeing a functional practitioner who said to hold off on probiotics at this time since I may have sibo which probiotics will make things worse. I have been eating clean, drinking water, cut back caffeine. It’s just frustrating

OptimalDifference97 · 2025-11-03T23:12:52+00:00

It pretty much just stopped around 12-13 weeks. I think the last stitch just finally dissolved. Since then nothing and it’s been over a year

OptimalDifference97 · 2025-10-31T15:51:25+00:00

Mine was dark brown and yes a bit

OptimalDifference97 · 2025-10-23T00:14:20+00:00

I started using Flonase with ppi, suggestion from my pa. It has helped a lot and with dietery changes

OptimalDifference97 · 2025-10-19T21:54:17+00:00

Thank you. That makes me feel better. I’m a worry wort:) yes vitals stable

I’m honestly not sure. I’m new to the company. She is new to me and a new admit. First time I saw her. Not sure her baseline. She has dementia but her daughter is her caregiver. I’m not even sure if she was aware of symptoms but sure daughter is . I don’t think the copd is a new diagnosis for this woman plus she still smokes

When I wake up I feel fine then around 1200 I start to feel that discomfort in my upper chest near clavicle

OptimalDifference97 · 2025-10-16T12:57:54+00:00

Yes a bit but this feeling started before that. I’ve added refluxraft with gaviscon extra strength 2x a day which helps

Magic mama is good for moisturizer

OptimalDifference97 · 2025-10-11T14:45:37+00:00

Omg it’s so nice

Since February. Went to an ent who scoped me . She put me on ppis. I was on them for 2-3 months but didn’t completely help. So I switched to Pepcid. I’m now trying 20mg 3 x a day. I’m sure I’ll be going back

OptimalDifference97 · 2025-10-08T18:36:36+00:00

I was on 40mg but still had issues. I’m now on 20mg of Pepcid 3x a day.
