Hello, I'm A Nurse. I Started Myself On H2 Blocker
Hello,
I'm a nurse. I started myself on H2 Blocker and PPI several months ago until I could get ENT appointment. I questioned LPR as symptoms were very consistant with LPR.
ENT states in fact, Dx; Laryngopharangeal Reflux 3 months ago. Excellent results from Prilosec q am and H2 Blocker q hs for 3 months. No further issue. I remain on Pepcid 20mg q am and 10mg q hs.
On occaision....Symptoms of Severe dyspepsia which last from 3 hours to 6-8 hours. Severe gnawing increases with intensity at times, bloating, belching. Symptoms occure about every 3-4 months. EGD-neg, H-Pylori-neg.
High dose of H2 Blocker eventually works (100mg-120mg) after I suffer for several hours. It's crazy!
Do you have any further suggestions?
