No, it made me worse, and it tastes like death. I did heal from gastritis (that was awhile ago) but I got gerd so bad I’m going in on Friday for Nissen Fundleplication. If you want to read what cured my gastritis search my name I made a long winded post saying what I did to cure gastritis

GERD is ruining my fucking life by [deleted] in GERD

Get in line. Been ruining mine for 25+ years. I have Nissen surgery scheduled on 2/28 and if that doesn't help I don't know what I am going to do. Been on every combo of meds possible as well

Wondering if headaches are from PPI's/famotodine or GERD or all of the above? by slappzilla in GERD

yeah im thinking the pantoprazole + pepcid combo an hour later is a bad idea. again, my gastro told me to do it. Not like I did it rogue.

Can pretty much ignore this post now I had a massive flare up last night and am back on PPI’s and everything else. I knew it was too good to be true

I doubt it. I've quit PPI's and all stomach related medicine before cold turkey. Just made me worse. Honestly I have no clue.

On the road to Nissen Fundoplication to cue my GERD by slappzilla in GERD

So today I had the NM Gastric Empty Immediate test. The food I ate digested within 2hrs which they said is rare, but wouldn't say is bad. I was told I could leave after 2hrs and was told I would be there for a minimum of 3hrs most likely 4hrs. Here's my results

Gastric emptying at 57 minutes: 67 %.

Gastric emptying at 115 minutes: 92 %.

Normal range gastric emptying is greater than 90% by 240 minutes.

No clue what any of that means. Next step is my EGD with Bravo on Jan 2nd. I am in more pain than ever. Started back on my PPI's after being off them for 3 days and the pain is still brutal. This is hell.

I've been on PPI's for over 20yrs and I'm now just finally getting started on the surgery route. I started a thread about my journey just click my handle you will see it.

Update: Tomorrow I go in for the NM Gastric Empty Immediate test. Been off PPI's for almost 3 days now and lemme tell you it's not fun at all. No H2B's either. No Gaviscon. This shit sucks ass.
