Struggling with Reflux Esophagitis Symptoms

Your symptoms sound exactly like mine. The reflux medicine didn’t help. I started the low FODMAP diet and drink ginger tea in morning to aid digestion, peppermint tea in evening to diminish reflux and IB guard peppermint oil pills anytime I felt stomach issues coming on. Once my stomach had a good reset from these, my reflux diminished. I stopped having as much chest pain and food felt stuck less often. I discovered trigger foods that cause reflux so I eat them less and if I do, I drink Iberogast drops and digestive enzymes to help me digest it better as well as ginger candy

Something that helped me was finding out I have Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity that severely worsens my GERD and food catching in my esophagus. Pantoprozole/Omeprazole both didn't work for me. I avoid nightshades, as those do me in the worst.

I am on that same medication and it does work very well. I use to get these suffocating attacks after l eat where my entire throat closes up and my food wood slowly come out of my mouth and l could not breath. It turned out my esophagus was not digesting any of my food so it was over flowing

Hi, I take pantoprazole for the reflect / heartburn. It helps a lot! My throat used to be on fire by the end of the day. I would try meditating before you eat for a few minutes. Maybe coming to a relaxed state and consciously preparing to eat will tell your body it’s time to eat and digest. There are some short guided meditations on youtube if you’re interested. I tried them for my IBS. Good luck 💕
