Living with GERD: Worries and Struggles

Is there anyone here that has had GERD for a very long time? I've had GERD for almost 20 years and I worry all the time about someday getting Barrett's esophagus or worse. I try my best to eat healthy and stay away from trigger foods but old habits don't die easily.

I found help with using aloe Vera juice and papaya juice (about 1 TBS each) with each meal. It takes about a month to help, but I had been struggling with GERD for 10 years and had gone through the RINGER of meds. This was the only thing that actually made it better! It’s an old Cherokee remedy that really really helped me! I hope it helps someone else!

I had the same issue but cured my problem with a very simple trick that pharmaceuticals don’t want you to know! It’s 100 percent guarantee and safe ! You must do this for 7 days and you will be pain free 100/100. Get an organic cabbage and make a juice out off it. Drink it with an empty stomach and 2 hours before you go to bed have a glass of cabbage juice . After you are cured. Keep me in your prayers and donate to a low income friend or a homeless 🤗

Same. Had GERD since I can remember and officially diagnosed about 10 years ago. I have a hiatal hernia and chock up most of the scary “GERD” like symptoms to that being flared. I haven’t heard of Barrets so I just looked it up and definitely have those symptoms but not absolutely all the time other than the last few months it constantly feels like I’m being either lightly choked or something is stuck in my throat. Definitely noticed more regurgitation multiple times a day within the last year. Ugh I don’t want another health problem. But still probably just flared hernia for me lol. If anyone has been diagnosed or knows more considering I just googled I’d love to hear about it.

I’ve had it for 4 years, not super long but I’m struggling with those things too and I’m considering getting surgery to fix it

I've been dealing with for 20 years but it's gotten worse the last year. I would wake up some nights choking. Honestly diet is your best bet.
