I think the food diary is a great idea for both you and the doctor. You can experiment with different foods and food groups and hopefully narrow down what if causing your pain. You have been through the mill and suffering so much. I have GERD and it does help to eat small meals more frequently, foods not very hot or very cold, stay away from spicy foods, caffeine & chocolate, elevate your head while sleeping. I really help the food diary gives you & your doc some direction. Don’t be afraid to speak up for yourself and stress how awful you are feeling. You can be firm while polite.
