Diagnosed with acid reflux
Have just been diagnosed with acid relux and have been given a ppI to take once a day. Have been taking this for only one week and do not feel very good on them although they have helped a little with the acid. I thought I would take them for awhile to let my inflammation heal but realise that long term they are no good. Can you give me some advice on help with this problem using homepathic remedies?I am 23 years old, female.
Symptoms started about 18 months ago when I was stressed out taking exams and not eating well as students do! Also had a couple of panic attacks with chest pains at the same time.
I sleep quite well.
I tend to be quite moody and intolerant. also faiarly shy and have low self esteem.
Have food intolerance tests which did not really show much. however I have cut out alcohol,tea, coffee, fizzydrinks and am trying to eat a healthier diet.
I have always been quite healthy a sporty but am now feeling quite weak and tired with not much stamina.
The only drugs I have had over the past years was antibiotics and then roaccutane for acne.
I really would like to cure this or control the acid without the use of prescriptive medicines as I am sure in the long term they can do more harm than good.
Have had an endoscopy which showed some inflammation but no hernia. The consultant was quite helpful but I got the impression that all he intends to do is to try me on more and more different drugs.
I do hope that I can get some good advice and suggestions from anyone reading this
Thanks

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
Your remedies are Nat Phos 6x dose 2-3 tablets taken immediately after each of 2 meals daily and
Arnica 30c in the Wet dose to rebuild the damaged tissue in your Esophagus.
STOP using all other drugs and report progress in a week.
The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:
Order the remedy in a 5ml Ethanol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you sip a capfull which is the dose.
Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this shaking must be done every time before a capful of the bottle is sipped as directed.
STOP using all other drugs and report progress in a week.
Please visit the links below which record the cases of other patients whom I have treated for GERD.

Thanks very much for the reply. do I drink the arnica /water through the day or at any particular time?
maxwell46 last decade
Arnica in the Wet dose is best taken on an empty stomach in the morning and just before bed.
I capful twice daily.
I capful twice daily.

Hi! I am dealing with Acid reflux past 2 mnths. After I had antibiotics for a month for stomach infection, urine infection and viral fever. My acidity seems to have become bad as there is tremendous pain in the left side of abdomen and under the arm pit. The pain radiates to the Upper back. I have burps and gas problems too. are all these pains related? My doc gave me biO combination 25 for acidity four pills every 3 hrs. Is it the right dose. I'm feeling better except the pain in still there.

Please read and follow the same therapy for GERD I prescribed above and this should hopefully help you.
Report progress in 3 days and stop all other drugs you are taking today.

Hello Joe!
As you had prescribed I started the nat phos 6x and arnica 30c. I took 3 pills after lunch but didn't really feel completely relieved. After dinner I took 4 pills but again it didn't seem too comfortable. And night I took arnica. The pain in my stomach and chest area along with the side of left rib is still there. Haven't been able to sleep last two nights. The gas problem doesn't seem to ease either.
This is just to inform you that I was doing much better with bio comb 25. I hope I'm doing the right thing with your dose. Today after breafast I'm feeling quiet heavy too. Can you please prescribe sumthing to strengthen my digestion too. Thanks

Continue the Bio Comb 25 you are using as it is a combination of Homeopathic remedies which cannot do you any harm.

Why does the pain remain? Is it only because of the acidity?
Thanks but I just wanted to tell you that I tried taking 4 pills of nat phos today in the afternoon and it was much better. I have also heard that med in combination are not as good as single doses. So was slightly confused. I shall keep you posted about how I do today and tomorrow as I am keen on following your prescription which has cured soo many already!

I do wish that I can answer your question but as you can imagine this is not possible. You indicated that your gastric problems started after the antibiotics you took for your recent bout of stomach and urine infections which would have lead to what you classified as viral fever and your doctors would be the best source to answer your query.
In a case like yours, it is best to use the remedy that gives you the greatest relief and since you stated that the Bio 25 helped you better than my therapy, I suggested that you continue with it.
The Nat Phos + Arnica therapy has helped thousands throughout the world but it is not prescribed in classical homeopathy. My therapy aka Joepathy invariably works and if you type GERD into the search box you can read the many cases that have been cured. You can safely take up to 4 tablets NP up to 3 times daily with Arnica in the Wet dose also taken thrice daily.
Do not drink water after a meal except for a sip or two but drink plenty of liquids up to half hour before meals. Exercise is also necessary part of your therapy and you will have to sweat it out.
Report your response from time to time to keep me informed of your progress.

Glad to read your response to my therapy.
Be assured that you will be cured.
The great advantage of my 'Joepathy' is that it is perfectly safe to be used in the long term but you will soon discover that you do not need to use it as the combined effect of the Nat Phos to accelerate the passage of food down the gut stops the acid build up and the Arnica helps heal the Esophagus which the Gastric juices have ravaged which is what causes GERD.
Report progress weekly and you should be back to normal in a few weeks when you will reduce the dosage of both remedies after consulting me.
