I was recently diagnosed with chronic Rhinitis after persistent symptoms of a dry cough, post nasal drip, runny nose & sneezing following a really nasty cold. I was prescribed a nasal drip but immediately started to suffer with heartburn. I thought it might be a reaction to the Rhinitis medication but my GP says not and said it was acid reflux. He suggested that the dry cough & nasal drip could be connected with the reflux problem. I am on 20 mg Omeprazole which I have to take for 6 weeks. I have yet to see any improvement although I've been taking the medication less than a week. Having done some research I'm also trying Aloe Vera juice & I'm trying to be sensible about my diet. I have found many of the suggestions on this forum very useful in terms of healthy lifestyle & natural products so I am hopeful that the condition will ease with time. I've always suffered with digestive problems, including IBS, indigestion & one previous episode of acid reflux, especially when I'm faced with prolonged periods of stress so I will also try some relaxation techniques.
