Severe heart burning

My problem started about 2 years ago. I started to get heart burn..mostly in the evening. I started eating a lot of tums, which helped. It seems that i get heart burn from foods with spices, ketchup, tomato, pop, beer and others.
I was sent to a doctor and they checked it out. Not sure what the procedure is called, but they stuck a thin circular tube down my throat. What they found was a hernia located at the entering of the stomach. This causes the acids to come up and produce heart burn.
I was placed on Protonix which worked beautifully. I had no heart burn or anything and i could eat whatever i liked. But i really don't want to take any medications as they always cause something else to come up.
I just went to another doctor and they did blood work.
they found that some of the foods cause reaction in my stomach. SOme of them include beef, pork, lamb, eggs, and seafood.
They asked me not to have these foods for 3 months to let my stomach heal.
Now, i have been doing it for 5 days and i admit, the hearburn is gone. but i have this burning sinsation on my tongue and it won't go away.
Is there such remedy that would heal my hernia and let me enjoy the foods i love the most?
I do smoke and i understand that it has an effect on the whole thing as well. Please help.

Thank you for getting back to me quickly Joe. While taking the remedies you recommended, can i eat the foods that cause me these problems or should i completely forget about them :-(

If you know that certain foods cause you some discomfort like pork, lamb and beef, you are advised to avoid them for the moment. You may however eat eggs and seafood which are easily digestible.

Eat small potions for a start as it is the large meals that cause your stomach to backfire with heart burn.

Let the Nat Phos 6x do its work in healing your acidity and Arnica will help to heal the damage to your Esophagus.

How about the burning of the tongue that i've had for 5 days now. I can't figure out what it is and i have cut out all the bad foods too.

Oh, and what size Pill should i get for nat phos x6?

Leshka last decade

I cannot figure out the reason for your burning tongue which is unusual. We can only hope that the Nat Phos therapy can help this problem.

Nat Phos 6x is only available in a standard size about 1/4' diameter and is available from Hylands at $9.50 in a pack of 500 tablets.
