@rozy288 ,
I’ve been following along your journey a while now. It surely is a mystery, but there has to be help out there somewhere for you. What did the Mayo Drs. do for you once you finally got in for a real appointment?
Also have you heard of The Undiagnosed Disease Network at Duke? It’s designed for patients similar to your situation I can send links if you need them.
@rozy288 - I have GERD but not a gas problem like yours. I have the head of my bed raised a few inches on bed risers and it helps a lot with my reflux problem. If you haven’t done that already, I wonder if it would make you more comfortable if you did …? Sleeping on an incline does take some getting used to, but it really helps me.
I am so sorry that that nothing seems to work for you. Don't give up though. I stayed on the net searching for anything to help my husband. And the LINX procedure did solve his acid reflux. However, he had already developed pulmonary fibrosis in his lungs and that was the beginning of the end for him. That's why I tell everyone I know that has acid reflux to get it seen about. May God bless you with an answer soon.
