Q: Is there a once for all ‘one size fits all medical solution’? surgery? tabs? syrups? diet restriction?
Is there any relation between bad odour of the mouth and the problem herein below?
Is there any relation between bad odour of the mouth and the problem herein below?
A friend of mine has a bad mouth odour. A very disgusting one. Very disturbing. Is there any relation between bad odour of the mouth and ulcers (sores in the lining of the stomach or small intestine), gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), a condition in which backward flow of acid from the stomach causes heartburn and injury of the esophagus (tube that connects the mouth and stomach), and erosive esophagitis (swelling and wearing away of the lining of the esophagus)??? Please explain at length if u know about the problem? what is the solution? is it curable or is it controllable? if curable, how? if controllable, how? does it really have a once and for all one size fits all solution? is it a life long problem like diabetes, hypertension etc? i wish as many people as possible comment, participate on this discussion. feel free to comment in any manner u think is right and appropriate. here we are! GO AHEAD!

A: For oral health (actually it’s a bit of a cure all). I advocate MMS.

Purchase it: (there are MANY sources that make MMS, but this is my choice)

http://mms-lab.com/shop/

Protocol as a mouthwash:
2 drops of MMS, with 2 drops of citric acid. Make sure the drops mix, and let sit for about 30 seconds. Mix with about half a cup of luke warm water. Rinse the mouth with it for about one minute. You wont experience any plaque build up for about 24 hours. Way more affective than mouthwash and tooth paste.

Though I don’t know how affective it will be if the source of the smell is come from down the throat.

Acid Reflux and ulcers.

I also know that eating bananas are extremely good for ulcers.

Further search reveals that bananas can be good for acid reflux specifically, but I’m reading arguments from both side of the fence. It appears to ease some GERD sufferers yet agitate others.

I recommend fasting.

Fasting over night without dinner.

Prolonged Juice Fasting.

http://juicefasting.org

and Water Fasting.

Juice fasting is the best way to start out since you’ll burn less callories and therefore eliminate toxins at a slower rate, therebye avoiding a herx reaction.

Therefore this gives the digestive system time to heal.

I don’t know how your friend would react drinking home made juice though.

Your friend can also try water fasting. But it’s best to fast one day at a time, maybe 1 or 2 days a week about 6 or 7 times before attempting a prolonged 5-7 day fast in order to avoid a herx (healing reaction from toxin purging.)

Personally, I love fasting and I do it for the health benefits alone. The first 2 or 3 days can be tough, but as you enter the 2nd stage of the fast, you will feel AMAZING and the best you have ever felt since you were a kid, and I swear my life on that statement, so try it lol.

I forgot, your friend also needs Vitamin C. On average EVERYONE needs atleast 1 gram a day, but in your friends case i would say atleast 2 grams.

Vitamin C is extremely important for the body.

Read this:

http://www.dummies.com/how-to/content/how-your-body-uses-vitamin-c.html

Vitamin C is essential for some proteins in the body, such as the creation of collagen fibers, the 100% Daily recommended value (DRV) is not sufficient for a healthy body, and over time leads to chronic scurvey (heart disease, cardiovascular disease and plaque build up).

Your friend may also benefit from L-Lysine which is an essential amino acid.

Q: Will curing G.E.R.D. have a very large impact on breathing problems?
I have been considering Nissen fundoplication surgery for my hiatal hernia, and would like to hear from people that have already had this done. I want to know, specifically, if this surgery improved any of the respitory conditions associated with GERD.

Also, will this place any restrictions on my pilot certificate?

Here is a crap load of background about me:

At one point I had done everything the doctor told me, including eliminating food from my diet that aggravates the condition, loosing weight until I was within the “healthy” parameters for my age/height/fitness, altered my sleep angle, and was on Nexium, Previcid, and Gaviscon. All of these actions helped the condition, but did not eliminate the symptoms. In fact, the symptoms were still so bad, that I gave up on the treatments.

I have been suffering from G.E.R.D. for my entire life, as I was born with a hiatus hernia. I also have hyperhydrochlorhydria, which aggravates the gastroesophageal reflux disease, as well as causing Gastritis and similar symptoms in the lower GI tract.

As well as the common symptoms of G.E.R.D., I have also been diagnosed with chronic bronchitis as a child, and then later diagnosed with asthma as an adult. (it is believed that G.E.R.D. can cause asthma)

The spasms in my stomach as well as the acid levels have been much higher lately due to some increased stress. These increases have led to Laryngopharyngeal reflux, which seems to be causing sleep apnea like symptoms.

Once I can aford health insurance, I’ll happily go through the same process where the physician and specialists tell me to change my diet, lose weight, take drugs, so on and so forth. Eventually, i will have exhausted all the non-surgical options, and I’ll probably opt for the surgery.
RE: Sandy

Acutally, yes, I do have discomfort in my ears, as well as (gag) a lot of wax!

I’ve actually had fifteen reoccuring ear infections, as well as some vertigo and swimmer’s ear. According to Wikipedia, this can be connected to the GERD and LPRD
I forgot to mention that I have the “lump” sensation associated with LPRD, as well as throat pain. I decided to add these details as others had commented that they have these symptoms. Although it is not relavent to my question, I feel these added details may help shed some light on their conditions.

Check out http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gastroesophageal_reflux_disease for GERD info, annd look for the links for LRPD and asthma

A: Well, from personal experience I can say that, yes, it did have a great impact on my ability to breathe. Mine only flares up once in a while, but when it does, it gives me asthma. I am not allergic to anything and the feeling of not being able to breathe correctly while having the chest pain from the gerd was scary, I thought I was having a heart problem!!! Once I take the neccessary steps to get the gerd under control with my meds, better diet, and sleeping posture… then I can breathe free & easy again. I don’t have the hiatal hernia, so I never needed the surgery. I wish you good luck!

edit/// To “Sandy”: Yeah, my gerd did that too. It caused pain in my esophagus & throat… sometimes the pain shot up into my ribs, neck, and ears too!!! The nerves in my esophagus are weird like that. Sometimes, also, the acid that would come up at night would make my throat hurt and sometimes give me a hoarse voice & sore throat, which would affect my ears too!
