For the second time, 10-11 hours after I take Dexilant, I get this horrible rectal pain. I checked the side effects and found proctititis which I already have as a side effect. It's weird that a PPI...
SharonZ and Jump1959, thank you. I gave Dexilant another chance and hope things go on well. I think one dose of Dexilant is not as effective as 2 doses of Nexium. I read some threads in this forum...
Interesting. I can't eat it, too but I will try from now on to juice it and see how things go on....
RosieinOz, thank you. Well, it seems my Crohn's got jealous or what. After only 1day on Dexilant, I had to return to Nexium because of severe rectal pain. I can't figure out how to control it esp...
I couldn't overcome my panick to undergo the impedance test esp after doctor instructed me to stay in hospital and not to move a lot. I told him that the purpose was to measure reflux while I'm...
Denise, thank you very much. I was instructed to take my meds normally even the PPI, Nexium as my GI wants to assess whether I get reflux on it or not....
Had an upper GI endoscopy which showed GERD LA A and incompetent sphincter. My GI explained to me that I have to undergo a 24-hr impedance test to determine the cause of reflux since I'm on a double...
Dencha and SharonZ, thank you very much for your positive feedback. I upped the Baclofen dose and it does not seem it's going to work. Tbh, I'm thinking of calling my GI to schedule an endoscopy...
Have had GERD for 20 years now. Have been on Nexium 40x2 for 12 years in addition to Zantac, Baclofen and Gaviscon. Saw my GI again because my GERD became worse. My GI discussed with me all options...
Sharon, thank you. My GI changed his mind and decided to perform an endoscopy which is fine with me....
I've been having GERD for 20 years now. Had several endoscopic during this journey. Since 2007, I have been put on Nexium 40 two times/day in addition to Baclofen, famotidine or zantac and Gaviscon...
So sorry that you're not feeling well. Mine too has become worse but I'm on high doses of meds. My advice would be to contact your doctor. Did you have an endoscopy?...
NCOT and Dave, thank you. For some odd reason, my GI refused I get the 1 mg tablet. However, I'll try to convince him again. You made my day when you said it's possible. Yes, I really need to get rid...
I have been on pred for a year and 2 months and then was switched to budesonide (entocort) since November 2011. Since then, I have been on different doses from 3 mg until 9 mg. In 2016, I started...
I'm a Crohn's patient with twenty years of GERD and gastritis. Last month, I lost my voice so my GI put me on Nexium 40 mg x 2, Zantac 300 mg x2, Baclofen and Gaviscon Advance. I had a referral to an...
