Peg, and reflux

[Phil M]

I noticed that I have reflux now that I have a peg. I guess from not having much solid food in my stomach. Do yall have any tricks to cut down on it?

 

[GlenBrittle]

Take a can of coke, stir the fizz out of it and drink. Gingerale works also .

Liquid Gavison or Milk of Magnesia (which has other benefits)

I take losec now , but will be switching to a liquid Nexium when I get stabbed.

Some of my old time refux remedies might not work so well with the PEG . Like a chunk of cheddar cheese , or have a PB sandwich.

Beware , I will not be responsible for PEG farts or pink skid marks on the jockey shorts *snicker*

A friend who had this problem all his life told me how he relieved his reflux problem.

This may sound weird, but my son-in-law told me it works for him too.

Take 1 teaspoon of vinegar.

Let me know if it works for anyone here.

Absolutely! Has to be apple cider vinegar though!

 

[joelc]

They both take regular white vinegar. Apple Cider vinegar would definitely be easier to take in my opinion. But would it work as well?

 

[GlenBrittle]

worth a try !

I love balsamic vinegar on my salad , wonder if that would work also ?

How long before it takes effect ?

[joelc]

They say it is immediate.

 

[GlenBrittle]

I may try it tonight .

Is it the Red or the White that goes with "Greasy junk food" for supper ?
