Long Term Issue of Not Being Able to Keep Food Down
About 2 yrs ago I had an EGD and received a botox injection in my legs because I had only been able to eat salad and soup for a whole year. Anything else I ate would not stay down. That shot worked for 1 1/2 years and I am experiencing chest pressure, uncontrollable burping ( which is very embarrassing ) and now I am back to vomiting. My dr gave me omeprazole and because of the vomiting it is not working. I was told after a blood test that I have a bacteria in my stomach H Pylori and they have prescribed an anti-biotic but I want to try the ACV before I start taking them. After searching the web and finding this website I went to get some apple juice and I am still feeling the pressure in my chest and the burping is still very prevalent but as soon as I get home I am going to try the pickle juice because I know I have that at home now.
Dear Lorrie: An apple juice or any fruit juice would not work for excessive burping. It will make the condition worse. The fermentation is caused apparently is due to slow emptying of the stomach. Try something easy when you eat food by adding some spices of oregano, thyme and clove together. These will prevent or stop fermentation as well as kill the helicobacter pylori.
And when the stomach is empty, take only apple cider vinegar 2 tablespoon plus 1/4 teaspoon of baking soda plus 1 glass of water. When the intestines will have enough bicarbonate after a week, the stomach should be able to clear the food faster. A simpler remedy still is just plain baking soda 1/4 teaspoon plus 1/2 glass of water taken twice a day.
When having this kind of burping, all sweets and fruit juices should generally be avoided as they cause fermentation.
In some cases taking magnesium supplements and vitamin B will help if in case the other methods do not.

Hi Lori. I happen to be on the earth clinic website and I saw your post about your acid reflux, not being able to keep things down and vomiting. I have those problems And the cause of mine is from a rare digestive condition that is called achalaysia where these finger between my esophagus and my stomach is closed so everything stays in my esophagus when I eat something. I also have contractions that rather than pushing food down it can push it up. Another symptom of this disease is if you have a difficult time swallowing at time. it. Itâs worth looking up if any of this resonates with you. I see a homeopath who deals with difficult cases of illnesses and she treats me for both diseases-achalasia and really bad acid reflux. the first remedy that she gave me stopped my inability to keep food down, my vomiting, and this coughing that would happen when the acid reflux was starting to get more intense. Itâs called Kali Carbonicum-30 I get it from the homeopathic pharmacy that is used by all homeopaths. They make things really purely and super high quality. Hereâs the link: https://hahnemannlabs.com/ you can also get a standard brand at any health food store, co-op, or Whole Foods. this however, is not high grade or as pure as something that you would get through the homeopathic pharmacy. I always go with the pharmacy on the advice of my homeopath. If youâre ever looking for a fabulous homeopath that can treat so many things and many different things that are going on in your body and the same time her name is Rachel Koppelman and itâs called Deep Woods Homeopathy. She she does Zoom bc her patients are from around the world.
I hope some of this will be helpful in some way!
