Up all night with gerd

Posted By Tazgirl43 (Chicago, Il, Usa ) on 02/18/2011

I have read all the remedies on this site for the treatment of GERD and have tried a few and have gotten worse heartburn and stomach upset. The lemonade just about did me in!

I have the severest symptoms possible associated with GERD and my nerves have become affected as well. I have been on every drug known, Nexium, Prevacid, Protonix, Aciphex, Kapidex, etc.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can cure or at least ease this pain? I don't sleep well due to being up all night with diarhea, stomach cramps, pounding in the stomach region, and heartburn.

Many thanks.

Have you been tested for celiac? That could likely be causing all the symptoms you mention and would be unaffected by standard GERD treatment.
