well i stopped all my meds and am going the natural route since none of the docs could help me. i went on an alkaline diet super strict, i drink aloe GEL not juice, i juice celery every day and drink a couple cups or it a day its super healing and alkaline and great for the belly. i also make fresh ginger root tea and drink lots of it every day. every morning i take 1/4 teaspoon of baking soda and put it in 4 ounces of water and drink it and also every evening its works wonders takes all the acid right away. i take strong probiotics (renew life ultimate flora 100 billion) every day. i put the heating pad with a damp cloth on my stomach and chest every evening to soothe the stomach and esophagus, i drink "6" 16 ounce bottles of water every day. i use drops called "CELL POWER" NOT cell food, CELL POWER in my water a few times a day. The diet is key all alkaline nothing acidic a very strict diet. Exercise, swim, bike ride, and walk and this is hard for me because i also have fibromyalgia but its all helping that to. now i have been doing this for 9 days now and i can just start to see and feel a difference. i believe it will heal me totally in time. reduce stress also...i also make fresh chamomile tea at night it helps me sleep good. its all natural and all things right here from the earth and i believe in time i will be healed of it all. i met a man a few months ago with all the same issues as me but even worse and this is what he did and hes 80% healed now. but u got to get that gall bladder out it will cause so much damage. it ate the lining of my stomach real bad and my esophagus. bile is like strong acid and its not supposed to be in your belly.
