Gastroenterology
Having GERD for 3 years
Hello, I'm a 26-year-old male who has been struggling with Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) for the past three years. The severity of my symptoms has been significantly impacting my quality of life and my ability to exercise.
Current Symptoms:
Daily acidity/heartburn.
Constant feeling of a lump in the throat, occurring 1-2 times per week.
Vomiting food due to constant throat irritation, which happens about once a week.
Yellow fluid (bile or stomach fluid) expulsion after brushing my teeth in the morning.
Diagnosis and Current Treatment:
Recent Endoscopy results showed a Lax LES (Lower Esophageal Sphincter) - Hill's Grade 2.
Abdominal CT scan was reported as normal.
My doctor advised that everything is structurally normal and recommended lifestyle changes, stress management, and using PPIs (Proton Pump Inhibitors) only when necessary.
I am not aligned to take PPI regularly and i am having high acidity post taking h pylori medication.

Regular diarrhoea and bloating
I am staying at a government hostel at a college for higher studies where the mess food is contaminated and we have no other option. I got LFT, USG, KFT and other tests done, everything is normal and is checked by doctor.
Every night after eating food at the mess i feel bloating, even though I walk after every meal, and after few hours watery motions happen like diarrhoea. It's happening everyday as the food quality is bad.
Is there any medicine or way in which I can protect my intestine and stomach even after eating this food.
I have already consumed more than 3 strips of bifilac cap in a month and still struggling. Same issue with fellow hostel mates.
Any syrup or medicine which can be gastroprotective in nature, other than ppis.
