I was Diagnosed with Barretts Oesophagus and Hiatus Hernia in August 2013, They put me on a PPI which is Esomeprazole which sometimes helps with the reflux!
Lately I have found it harder to swallow the esomeprazole (plus co-codamol / any medication for that matter) for my degenerative joint disease (Osteo Arthritis)
In the time since I was diagnosed with osteo arthritis in August 2013 I haven't been for a re-scope!
Sorry I meant Barretts Oesophagus
Dear Rob If you are having difficulty in swallowing this is quite serious and I would definitely see your GP as soon as possible. Best wishes
It's not all the time now n then I gag when taking Meds too!
Rob I cant swallow capsules which severely limits the meds available. You can take Nexium out of the cover and swallow it with apple juice. I can just swalled Parriot. There are several clips on You Tube showing methods for "difficult " patients.
