Hiatus Hernia
Hey guys, is there someone who suffers from Hiatus Hernia and GERD? How do you deal and cope with the hiatus hernia please? My gastroenterologist has claimed that I do have a hiatus hernia which the size isn't small from an endoscopy. I did the barium test also and nothing serious has been found. But

Hi Everyone, Iām wondering if any of you have had a similar experience to what Iām dealing with. I had a laparoscopic hiatal hernia repair with toupet fundoplication back in September of 2018.

Diagnosis of achalasia
Achalasia affects only about 6,000 people in Britain who are at various stages of managing the condition, so it is rare. For some, it can be a long time before the condition is diagnosed, and can become confused with eating disorders, for instance. Achalasia prevents people from swallowing properly

Don't Stop Knocking on the Doctor's Door! 20 Years of Pain Before my Diagnosis. This was Never Solely IBS!
I want to post this as encouragement for all those who know there's something wrong but have been told to do some yoga and take a few pills. I battle with a chronic illness. To all who have prayed, listened, cared, supported, not given up when I almost did, and have been there for me- thank you. For

How do you cope with GERD attacks and gall bladder pain and what on earth do you eat?!
When originally diagnosed with a hiatus Hernia and GERD (don't even remeber being diagnosed with gall stones as they weren't causing any problems) the painful attacks used to be few and far between and were just that...painful. Fast forward a few years, attacks are generally hours of pain, sweating

Difficulty Swallowing and Frothy Spit After Eating
I am an 19 year old male. In the past year I have been having problems with my swallowing. After eating or mid way through a meal, my throat feels full and I have constant frothy, bubbly saliva that I keep having to spit out. I went to the GI twice. The first one was in September of 2018. He did an upper

Opinion from anyone about aPendix stuck to Half My Colon ?
Just looking for anyone no matter how many for an opinion on how long would you think it would take your appendix to get oversized and not only stuck to half my COLON but plastered to it ? The reason I'm asking this question is I had a barium enema done with x-rays after 12 years of going through

Liquid diet due to swallowing issues, any tips??
I posted on here before about some swallowing issues, unfortunately they have gone from bad to worse. I started having issues at the end of January which we at first thought may have been caused by my anemia, but it was not. Beginning of February/end of January doctor sent requests for more tests and

Entering Another Phase
For the first 58 years of my life I have thoroughly enjoyed eating. To the point that Iāve been obese most of my adult life. Letās just say I have had very few people in my lifetime tell me I needed to eat. That is until my wonderful strolling companion, LBD, and I made it much farther down this dark

Spitting up blood only in the Mornings
I am new here. I am not a smoker, never have been and every morning I clear my throat by spitting out my phlem and the horrible unusual taste in my mouth only in the mornings. It is red blood, red mucus, and two different mornings I spit up/out a blood clot. Been to the ER twice now, blood work says

Trouble swallowing solids.
I have lost the ability to swallow solid food, so only liquids and powder dissolved in liquids in my diet since the end of January. I am getting a barium swallowing assessment done in March and a endoscopy as well to see what is going on. But with everything my blood work keeps looking worse and worse

Iām really struggling to get a hold on my health which has been dropped in the last year, particularly the last 4 months.

Am I the only one?
I develop pains when I am under stress and panic - usually my stomach, I get trapped gas under my ribs, I belch, I start to have panic attacks and imagine I have every deadly disease out there. It can be triggered by a pharmecutical commercial. I lost my brother last year and his birthday was 2/2.
