I have now had acid reflux on and off since lockdown but over the weekend and on going now so I decided to get some Omeprazole from my doctors,,I'm not sure how long they take to work but at the moment I'm not sure wether to sit stand or lay down,even bending over sets it off.Iwas wondering if anyone else was taking Omeprazole,I have bad anxiety which doesn't help.
I’m also going through a really bad spell of this at the moment. For years of and on i would get the horrible lump in throat feeling & was told it was globus, anyway decided to have a talk with dr on tuesday who says my symptoms point to silent reflux & has prescribed lanzoprazole every morning & gaviscon advance last thing before bed which i am starting tonight & also not lying on right side as that apparently makes it all so much worse. I hate this so much because i’m already so anxious about everything & this just makes it 10 times worse, i’m obsessing over it constantly & feel scared to eat which is daft because i’ve had this for so many years & eventually it goes away. I really hope this works & i’d also like to know how long this sort of thing takes to work. Hope you get some relief soon prue1956.Quote:

I've gotten a lot of relief from two things: Taking a daily pro-biotic and intermittent fasting (eating only between 11am and 7pm). Not eating after 7pm makes and especially huge difference. When I get flair ups I'll also cut coffee for a week, eat more veggies, and even try to limit the Tums, which create bad rebound heartburn for me.

Doctors always say to me they have never come accross this. I'm suspecting vagus nerve.
Any ideas? X
