Persistent Acid Reflux & Potential Causes: A Patient's Experience


Question
Ok, it's me.  Still having reflux issues.  5 drs say it's worse due to stress.  Had extensive bloodwork to include liver ect..  All perfect.  Can your ears clog from reflux?  My ENT says no that's my allergies.  I ate approx. 1/20th of some teriyaki sauce and 4 hours later I felt burning right below adam's apple.  Reflux has lessened as long as I only eat plain food.  Another question, if I have mild esophagitis right above the junction does that have the ability to go away?  Remember meds don't seem to do much but the only thing I feel is right below the adams's apple.  I also have rhinitis and post nasal drip which ent says is allergies because he sees white areas in my nose.  I guess that is indicative of allergies.  I just don't know how to get back to eating without problems and feeling well again.  this whole thing came out of No where when I was stressed.

Answer
ears don't clog from reflux.  Indigestion from those kind of foods can mean food allergies... intolerance to diff foods like soy products.... I would try Zantac 150 bid and avoid offending foods for the most part..... the ear is probably a separate issue.
