Hello @phillygirl1000 and welcome to the Digestive Health support group on Mayo Connect. I see that you have GERD as well as SOB.

Would you like to share more about these diagnoses? For example, how long ago were you diagnosed, what treatments, medications, etc. have been helpful to you.

I look forward to hearing from you again.

I’ve only started to have this problem get worse recently. I do have a tortuous colon but I didn’t think it was that serious until Three weeks ago when I ended up in the hospital for 14 days with a partial bowel obstruction and severe diverticulitis. I never had anything so painful since childbirth years ago. After I got out of the hospital my GI dr has me taking both Miralax and Citrucel but neither is helping. So I added Ducalax and that helps. I’m trying to go dairy and gluten free and trying to go more plant based but so far nothing has really helped. I would love some suggestions.
