My specialist said take Gaviscon Advance like Smarties ie. as often as you like.You have identified foods that make your condition worse so now can you try a restricted diet of low acid foods that may work for you. Certainly small meals, having a walk after eating, raising the bed head all help me. Good wishes

12 weeks is early days. My son had a new hip aged 28-Avascular Necrosis. Keep doing the exercises, watch your weight you’ll get there.

Oh ok. Im 72 and overweight. I was shopoing just leaving sainsburys uk. Paused a minute with back to big windows. A huge explosion glass everywhere. It knocked me off feet....i knew id broken hip cos of pain. Lady had lost control of car hit a car then bollards then window. Luckily a metal bar stopped it from hitting me. Yes exercise do. My hip ok its my front thigh and knee. Hasnt improved . Cant go out or drive. So with all other issues a wee bit cheesed off.
