I was taking Nexium but they didn't do anything for me. I never get heartburn and most things i eat don't annoy me but if I go near Alcohol at all the next day i have the worst Acid Reflux ever seen. I basically spend the whole day in bed with a migraine and get sick about six times.

I had 5 pints on Saturday night and spent the whole of Sunday in bed with my head pounding and throwing up pure acid. Ive had the camera down me and was told I had an inflamed stomach. I have changed my diet and am now eating healthy but still cant have a few pints.

My doctor has now put me on SURMONTIL and so I have started to take that......

Do I have to give beer up for good?

Poor you ive suffered with my stomach for years not to bad now though i had similar syptoms and had that camera thingy done and they found a hernia put me on omerparasole tabs and it helps but ask them to do a scan .

I know it might sound mad but i was the same after a drink and in the end they found out i had Gallstones which block the ducts and cause this reflux . Ask you doc to send you for a scan ive had my gallblader out now and im fine with the drink

Listen to your Nan

s@int wrote:SURMONTIL is an anti-depressant Dundalk, you might be better off with omeprazole if its an infected or inflamed stomach. Thats what I take for mine,and as long as I don't drink anything fizzy (especially alcohol) im ok. If you want a quick cure, give up coffee/tea and smoking as well as they are all irritants. Worry, stress , etc are other factors mate which is probably why you are on surmontil.

Did you not have the hernia as well mate ?

I havent had more than the odd glass of wine or bottle of beer in years.

Them omerprazole are wonder drugs Saint

Tried the tagamet and a few others but nothin so stuck with them. Mind you old age dosnt help

Just remember to keep breathing and its not THAT bad, not nice but it doesn't last very long. You are also a lot less likely to have problems if your awake. Just think your g/f has to deal with something similar every night.
