“As usual the supernatural powers of Instagram have found my symptoms and several perfect cures” 😅

I believe there is a lot of overlap between treating GERD and silent reflux (LPR) so thought I would share a link to our free guide on the subject.

My husband is trying the ESO Repair now. He has the same issue but it might be tied to post nasal drip. He just started it a few days ago so I’ll report back

I had bad allergy symptoms for many years and I was taking Allegra fluconase Sudafed Benadryl and sinus rinse but it never went away and Allegra made it worse. 2020 I started taking Z protocol quercetin, bromelain, C, zinc and D3. My allergies improved. I still take all of that and I don’t have any symptoms of allergies anymore except itchy eyes sometimes.

The response from D544 is RIGHT ON! And especially vitamin D-3 of which I take 120,000 I.U. daily. 5.000 I.U,. daily is a good standard dose for adults but many find that it takes 10,000 I.U. per day for optimal protection.

I have know a few patients whose similar symptoms stopped when they stopped consuming dairy products.

I’ve dealt with silent reflux for years, and it was a game-changer when I switched to smaller, more frequent meals. Has anyone else tried adjusting meal sizes? How did it work for you?

Have you tried Budesonide spray for the postnasal-drip symptom of silent reflux? Even though it probably won’t cure the root cause of silent reflux, could it possibly reduce that bothersome symptom you described?

The Midwestern Doctor writes of silent reflux here and a few of his other posts it is mentioned: https://www.midwesterndoctor.com/p/stomach-acid-is-vital-for-health?utm_source=publication-search

Dear “Sinus Reflux” Joy Pearce, I too have similar sinus drip issues and more than most snorky sinus – nose…. I recently heard about sinus rinse with DMSO and Silver Colloid and I’ll add MY OWN INQUIRY about Molecular Iodine soln with DMSO…. With that said, I’ve not any real direct learning or experience with DMSO…. I sense there is some value in this homebrew nasal management. SO I’m herein asking for similar help as “Sinus Reflux Joy” above. Who here, at our awesome IMA group, can offer up some safe & sane guidance to medicate-flush to get a less active “drippy/snotty” sinus & nose. Could NAVAGE be a good delivery tool. Thanks Craig Sjo

My same symptoms lessened when I elevated the top end of my bed 4”.

Dr Yoho of Surviving Healthcare mentioned something I’ve been meaning to try: dissolving xylitol in either saline or distilled water, and using as a nasal rinse (with NetiPot or similar). I ordered the powder, but haven’t yet tried it. My GERD diminished greatly after several months on a ketogenic diet. I eliminated all bad oils, most processed foods, refined wheat, and started taking probiotics. Once my cravings for crap foods subsided, my appetite diminished and meals were naturally smaller. It’s seldom a problem now, but the nasal rinse is supposed to be good for allergies, too. Now if I can just get motivated to do it!

There is a commercially available xylitol-containing nasal spray called “Xlear” that is formulated with or without red pepper. I prefer it with red pepper, which gives a very strong response. It helps, and does not have a rebound effect.

I know it well! My wife and I started using it during Covid. I have emphysema, and it has helped me avoid respiratory infections, which are rather serious for me. It’s pretty pricey, though. Xylitol powder in bulk is quite reasonable, and lasts a long time.
