Changes in foods eaten is critical to get rid of GERD. A PPI or similar meds treat the symptoms not the CAUSE of GERD. I’ve been there. Get tested for what’s causing your SYMPTOMS. It could be a bacterial infection, a fungal infection, a yeast infection, parasites. I had three of these causes. Changes in what I ate were necessary- I stopped eating anything with gluten, went off dairy products for a while, omitted sugars and high sugar products. I shoot for no more than 10% sugar in packaged or bottled products. Prebiotics and probiotics are helpful to build the intestinal wall that has been damaged. Consult with a nutritionist who can help you if it all sounds overwhelming.
If you ever do understand why TCM proponents say don't sleep sitting up please post again with the explanation. Many people with GERD sleep nearly sitting up. It seems to help, but if it's doing the opposite I'd like to know. Thanks!
