Glad your doing better. I used to have some bad reflux years ago.

Good luck on tx!

Good to hear, Ted, glad you`ve got that sorted out and have got something to relieve your discomfort!  smile

ps - I had to google it...GERD = `Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease`

Went to the doc yesterday and my Liver is swelling a little, but the main issue turned out to be Gurd. He gave me Dexilant.

That stuff worked like a charm. I feel better than I have in days.

He did a CBC and my platelets are on the rise too.

 

All in all, a good day.

Ted

I'm in week 2 and it has been kind of a roller coaster. For a few days, my stomach has been swelling. Now it is so big that the skin is tight and I can't even pinch it. Haven't been able to eat since friday. Just snacking a little and forcing down something with Fat for the Incivik. I think I'll call the doc tomorrow.

 

Rest easy all

Ted

Hi Ted, I`m not sure what`s causing your stomach to swell, I`m wondering about fluid retention, but I think you`re doing the best thing by contacting your doctor today.

Let us know how you get on, it sounds like it`s very uncomfortable.  hmm  Hope you get some relief soon...you need to be able to eat!
