Thank you for writing about your experience. I’ve been screaming for years it’s not to much acid but to little! My 19 year old granddaughter has started vomiting after meals and what do the drs do but put her on PPI? Interestingly she spent a month in Greece and all her vomiting went away. She has caught onto the idea that it’s her diet and had a food sensitivity test done and admits that if she only eats what she should she has no vomiting. But she’s a college student and it’s hard to stay true to your correct way of eating….

Good for your granddaughter to take the food sensitivity test. PPI’s are counterproductive. Greek food is made with fresh vegetables, breads and pastas made from different wheat than what’s grown in the US, fresh seafood and meats and good olive oil. I’m gluten intolerant but when I travel to Greece, Italy and Spain I eat all kinds of bread, pasta and pastries without any stomach issues. Here in the US I only buy pasta imported from Italy and only eat gluten free bread.
I too was put on a PPI and had adverse effects and told by my GI to never take it again. I wish your granddaughter good health.
I’m confused about the too little acid vs too much.
I am open to the idea, but sometimes I can feel the acid in my stomach churning around.
I have had gerd for years and currently take Protonix.
I just started Carafate, too.
Also, there is an advanced form of Gaviscon made in the UK.
I get some relief from that.
I am having the worst episode of gerd right now that I’ve ever had.
Chest tight, short of breath, exhausted. Raspy voice. Had third endoscopy a couple of months and doctor said it was clear. Oh, and the bloating is terrible.

Thank God for that trip to Greece. Are processed foods are unadulterated poison. I don't know if I mentioned that in my 40s I too started vomiting right after meals. I have been told I have "sensitivities to casein, but refuse to give up yogurts and cheeses and don't experience any gastric distress when I eat them.
