I have chronic gastritis and Esphogitis, Class B GERD and a small Hiatal Hernia . I belch over 3000 x a day/ night . I eat so healthy and avoid all trigger foods . The constant non stop churning in my gut and deep wet burps cause fatigue and sometimes kick up my heart palps .
Ive tried everything RX wise , PPI , holistic approaches , elimination diets . Seen 5 Gastro Dr’s , had every test run / still here I am 7.5 years later now taking antidepressant and anxiety med( as needed ). It’s ruined my life for most of my 50s . I have televisit w/ Gastro Dr at Mayo Clinic Jacksonville in September .
So far I’m a medical mystery, and I hate it . I live in Ultra Pepto daily . I would wean off the PPI @nightingale1998 . If anyone else is going through what I am , can you let me know ? I’m desperate!! Thanks Rosemary

I read your post about your "medical mystery" and I'm so sorry that you have had to deal with this problem for such a long time. I can imagine your frustration!

I am glad to hear that you have a tele-visit with a GI doctor at Mayo. Mayo Clinic is known for its diagnostic ability and I hope that you find some information and help there.

I just have one other thought: Have you looked into allergies? For example, did you start any new meds around the time that this problem started? Do you have any known food allergies?

I'm also wondering if there are any days when the burping is better than others? Is it the same during the day and during the night?
