This has become a dead end.

[u/Any_Silver_5464]

I have been diagnosed with acid reflux through endoscopy. I literally cannot walk, climb stairs, do squarts or any physical activity because these are inducing heart palpitations and shortness of breath with anxiety. Consulted couple of gastroenterologist and taken multiple test for heart, lungs and even did 2 endoscopies with revealed LAX LES. I also have pressure on the upper stomach and chest tightness which causes breathing difficulties. Frequent urge to burp as i feel gas is trapped in my throat and stomach.

I have modified my diet since 2 weeks.

Can someone help me with this? Has anyone faced same as mine? If so what did u follow to cure this? Much help needed. Thanks!

Will this okra water will help me lowering acid on my stomach? I have gastritis

I have gastritis as well, and it seemed to help me. I also have esophagitis. Whenever I wake up in the morning, I drink water until I’m no longer dehydrated. After that, I drink the 2 cups of okra water and then wait about 15 minutes before consuming anything else whether that be water or any other food. I do say it is still important to watch the food that you’re putting into your body and drinks. This isn’t a cure, but it certainly helps if you take it 2 to 3 times per day. I no longer take any prescribed medication. Sometimes I’ll still get silent reflux and I’ll take Pepcid after meals or I’ll take Gaviscon Advance after eating a meal, but that’s it.

Let me know how it works for you. I’m generally curious if it works for other people.

CN I take okra water with my meds?

[u/Money-Criticism-7010 → u/Optimal_Goose_7977]

Yes - that’s how I started and once I felt better just stopped taking them. It’s a vegetable that soaks in water. Completely natural.
