Hi Lilian sorry to hear the bad news. I dont know much about the disease you have. I did tho research for pictures and read a little at wikipedia. All I can say is to pray to God and try Apple cider vinegar, coconut oil and molasses. These three remedies do work excedingly good for many conditions. You will know when you read about the feedback people have given on Earth Clinic. Any way do not lose hope "for every disease there is a cure" I wish you good health and may God help you. Have a nice day/night.

Hi, If I were you I'd get a hair analysis test done, it's highly likely you are deficient in vitamins a and d. At their core a lot of illnesses are due to deficiencies of vitamins and minerals it could be that you are intolerant to dairy and or gluten and that is stopping further absorption. Look to see if you have other symptoms. Keep a diary- do any foods make your situation worse? Aloe Vera juice heals the digestive tract but if you keep eating stuff your body can't digest then it will reoccur. Food combining and or juicing veggi diet would help and if your tests proove you are deficient in vitamin a and d then you should look to taking a good quality oil like cod liver oil or flax oil.

I've had it for six years now and I have taking the medications. I was worried to at first, but six scope later it has remained the same. I take bs molasses, organic coconut oil and Apple Cider Vinegar and baking soda ( sometimes). Good luck it's not as bad as it seems this many years down the line. Just have to avoid high acidic foods and don't miss your yearly scopes. Best wishes God bless and keep you.

I had GERD for well over a year. Doctors just said keep taking Prilosec. I tried not to take it and endure the pain. No coffee. :( Then I learned about ACV. A shot in some water. Then rinse mouth with baking soda to protect your teeth. At first I had to drink the ACV twice or more a day, but overtime less often. Now I'll take it when I've eaten late or something. I think it's not too much acid in the stomach but not enough.. So the food stays there too long. ACV will keep things moving and let you heal.
