Hi there, I’ve had this diagnosis for about seven or eight years, no medication works for me, accept Gaviscon might take the edge off). I used to be on PPI medication for many years and then it suddenly stopped working. Has anyone else had this experience?I used to be on PPI medication for many years and then it suddenly stopped working. Has anyone else had this experience?
What I call my daily “baseline” in terms of discomfort is 5/10. Anything below that is a bonus. (Constant feeling of acid, bad bloating to the point where I can look pregnant!)

I also have a hiatus hernia which doesn’t help.
Does anyone have any other remedies? I have had a second opinion and he told me that he wouldn’t see me again for this problem.
I have recently had a flareup, and it has been absolutely unbearable some days, it’s one of those conditions that you literally don’t know how much longer you can carry on with it..
Any advice/information greatly appreciated.
Best wishes to you all,
Zoë
