Asthma and LPR?

Hi

Yes that's what I was started on. I'm hoping I can come off it.

Ok I take omeprazole 20mg and I don't think I will get off it..It protects from the steroids side effects and antibiotics we have to take..when I am on steroids I actually have to increase to 40mg..I was told good gut bacteria help so I eat live yoghurt, I have organic porridge oats in the morning with boiling water and honey, and stewed apples. It has helped a lot actually but requires discipline..
