The Bottom Line We do not need to suffer the pain in our chest or the pain in our belly.
I have had this horrible taste in my mouth when I awaken in the morning. I thought it was just part of aging. I have been having the feeling of a large knife being plunged into my chest, while my stomach felt as if a large stone was in there, that HURT, big time! I figured it was all part of aging, as I AM 63. Yesterday, I had an appointment with a very nice pulmonologist. He looked at my Xrays, MRI, and CT scan before he came into see me. He looked at all my records, as well. He asked me about all those feelings and the wretched taste in my mouth. I was very surprised that he just seemed to pull that out of his hat! I told him that he was totally correct in his diagnosis. He told me that my stomach was leaking into my esophogus, and that I had acid reflux disease. He could tell by my Xrays that I had this leakage happening. I was very impressed with this Specialist. He told me to sleep with my head 4 to 6 inches above my body, to help prevent the leakage going on inside me. I am using pillows to keep my head up that high, now, to sleep. Then, he gave me Previcid pill samples to stop the pain. Well, that is just wonderful for my body. I have not had the feeling of the knife in my chest since I began these pills. He told me NOT to eat cheese, citrus drinks, tomato sauces, onions, chocolate, garlic, spicy foods. I am Italian. NOT eating speghetti and such is asking WAY too much from me! Literally, I LIVE on cheese and tomato sauce foods with lots of spices. Still, I, now, know that I will pay the price of pain when I eat these foods, if I do not take this wonderful Previcid that can be bought over the counter. If you are another person who is suffering with these ailments, remember the simple rules that this doctor gave to me. Buy the Previcid and get rid of the knife in your chest that feels exactly as a heart attack does, and get rid of that stone that makes your belly swell and have horrendous pains. Use the extra pillows and do not allow yourself to sleep in a flat position that allows your esophogus to leak into your other organs. This all sounds very easy, considering how much pain this disease gives, but, that's what works for me. I hope it works for you! Just be aware of the rules for no pain, and help yourself. Be healthy! |
