My partner suffers from gerd can anyone help?


My partners suffers from gerd and i worry for him alot as he suffers diaria,stress,anxiety stomach pains he does not get heartburn but i also think he may be depressed because of this condition, the thing is the doctors are no help they give him medication but no advice on what there is to help or bother to check if he has stomach cancer or anything else he has to wait 6 months to get a scan at the hospital. I feel so sorry for him and our relationship is suffering because of this. I have told him to sleep elevated but he said this is not helping and he not eating or drinking anything acidic but still nothing helps he also suffers bad breath. Please if anyone can help or give advice on this that would be brilliant as i really want him not to suffer like this for the rest of his life.

He has had 2 xrays a camera put down his throat and a scan of his stomach and all came back normal do you know if there is any other scan he can get apart from these ones? And do you suggest going private to get more in depth help.

What he needs is an upper GI or an esophageal scan to see if he has an hital hernia.

What I would suggest is his diet, Metamucil for roughage and either pep-to-bismal or something for his stomach. I would seriously think of the diet, foods like jello, soft foods without spices, fats or to much roughage.

Why 6 mot. for a MRI or X-Ray, if the doctor orders one, he should get it right away.

get a different doctors opionion and surf the internet and see why this disease is so bad and are there any cures

Go to a gastroenterologist and get him to do an endoscopy to see what is going on his GI tract.
