I take lansoprazole gaviscon. I am on a medication 16 months that makes me crave sweet stuff carba soo bad im now prediabetic cos of it.

Before it i couldnt eat biscuits cake pizza cheese yog grapes honey croissants peanut butter mince dried fruit prunes nuts .choc.

Stikl wairing bravo manometary months now and gp said you had a scooe last July so they wont do another yet pain is worse. I just sit crying. If i dont eat it burns.

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.
