Hi Carole,
You could try the Fodmap diet haven't used it myself (yet) but I know a friend who has and has benefited from it, you will find it if you google it.

Thankyou linda been to docs this morning doesnt seem cocerned so need to do everything i can to get rid of this chest pain 😣
when mine is really bad I take 30mg Lanzoprazole twice a day and the other thing my GP suggested was Buscopan as it relaxes the gut I wasn't sure it would help but it did.

I take lansoprazole 30 mg once a day been on them for years as endoscopy said gastritis but this is first time ive ever had this sore chest and lump in throat . Told today thyroid fine and all other bloods still scared though x
Plus the fact im scared , worried and constantly looking in net is probably making things worse . Im my own worst enemy xx
Don't be scared Carole, I was too, but the stress just makes it worse, like you Just recently I had the chest pain right through to my back right up into my right shoulder the pain was awful, many of the people on this Forum have experienced the same, Did your doc tell you to up the Lanzoprazole I did until it settled down.
Try not to worry, here for you if you just want to talk.

Tonight the pain in my chezt been really bad and spitting up white foamy spit . Is this normal for reflux . Everything i put in is a sign of oesophegal cancer ðŸ˜
Yes darl it's all part of reflux especially if it's a flare up. I have suffered 20 years now with it, it's awful. Had had loads of bloods done last week to reassure me cause I throught I had stomach cancer all come back care. Peptic liquid is also very good and eat little and often. I was also told by dr not to eat after 7 on a night xx
Thankyou x
Hi Linda I came across it on a site I have done a lot of research into reflux as I have had it over 20 years. Anxiety and stress are the worst things to set reflux off. Also drinking pomegranate juice helps xx
Your more than welcome xx
I also get white foamy spit when in a flare up, try to stop worrying Carole I know its not easy when you in so much discomfort, but if your going to google try looking for the positive things like can reflux cause!!!!, rather than looking at the cancer sites, your among friends on here and we have all been there keep your chin up mate.
