pretty much means heartburn 24/7

Hi,
i've not long been diagnoised with reflux.
I had a heli bactor blood test done which
came back normal so I know I don't have an
ulcer.
My question is does anyone else suffering
from reflux get pain around the rib area.
It starts off with me feeling nausea's as
tho I have alot of trapped wind. Then for
a day or 2 after I suffer with pain round
the rib cage area and sometimes in my
shoulders.
Is this an normal sympton of reflux. I
just want to put my mind at ease a little
cos I also suffer from anxiety and panic
attacks and I tend to get alot of bad
thoughts about any little ailment I get.
Many thanks
pp1

Rx For Gerd-zantac With Prevacid

Just a quick note to say i've had the pain
you mention as being under your rib cage
and felt it was heart related until the
doctor said it was gerd. Also I suffered
extreme burning pain with it. I used
zantac to avoid getting it for a while and
tried to combine it with prevacid a
stronger medication. I finally got
relief when I stopped taking zantac and
took prevacid exclusively. What a
relief.... Hope this helps someone cos
it was hell until I got it under control.

Anxiety And Gerds And Eating Out
Posted: 11-27-06 01:25am

Hi all,
about a year ago I started having panic
attacks and for some reason I havn't been
able to shake them. I also have a gerds
conditon. I somtimes wonder if my anxiety
triggers off my reflux. For some strange
reason I have a problem eating out for
dinner. I just feel trapped and like im
always gonna get sicks when im out to eat.
I feel like a nut job for being scared to
go out to eat lol. I was just wondering
if anyone has ever felt like this going
through anxiety. I'll take a half of
.25mg of xanex somtimes before I go eat
out. And for the anxiety I can be fine
for weeks and then all of a sudden i'll
have an attack. So I only take the med
when it's really bad but for some reason
going out to eat triggers me off. I feel
bad my gf likes to go out to eat. Just
wondering if anyone ever feels like this
about going out to eat????

Hi! I'm feeling the same thing as you
DOEVNA. I have pains in my chest
frequently but not everytime. I do not
have heartburn. What exactly is this
sickness? Are there any possible ways
which we can cure it? I have been feeling
like this for almost 3 months.

Me too. Also can go up as far as your
throat and burn the heck out of it. Did
you get on any GERD medication yet? It can
cause damage to the wall of the esophagus
if you do not get on something. This is
when the stomach produces to much acid and
it regerdgetates up into the eshophagus
and throat area. I had an attack two weeks
ago I thought my thoat was on fire.

Thanks for the reply. I went to endoscopy
check one month ago. After that, they gave
me some medication. Unfortunately, i
didn't help so far. Do i still have to
check with my doctor? How did you manage
to cure it? Thanks.

Hmmm, they might try you on something
different. Ya know, I am not sure that it
is ever really cured. Just healed and just
continue the medication so it stays that
way. I believe if you stomach gives out to
much acid it always will but, there are
ways like diet and eating habits to reduce
the occurance.

Over salivation is one thing I have never
heard in association with GERD. I'm not
saying it could not happen by any means.
If you are on any medications, sometimes
they can cause that to happen.
