Hi Dear !! Thanks for your query to HCM. Read and reviewed your query and health concerns. You seem to suffer from GERD-with regurgitation of Burping gases accompanied with Giardial/amoebic entero-colitis. The indigestion and excess food fermentation with entero-colitis and accompanied malabsorption, leads to bloated gases from spastic intestinal sphincteric systems and imbalance of motility of the intestinal and gastric movements with regurge of Acid reflux and gases causing bubbling up with burping, causing cough from the acid reflux / and or from esophagitis which makes vagal afferents more hypersensitive and hypereflexive, giving rise to cough from acid reflux. Remedy Suggested- Treating only by Prilosec, therefore needs to be supplemented with- tab-Ciplox Oz-1 x 2 per day x 7-10 days time-treating accompanied-protozoal and bacterial infection Cap PPI- Panto-D-1 x 2 x for 4-12 weeks -with LES (lower esophageal Sphincter)regulators. Morning-30 minutes walk, Plenty of fluids, Butter Milk- 2 times a day. Porridges with rice for 1week, Butter Milk x 2 times a day. CAp Sporlac- to stabilize bacterial flora, Avoid spicy,nonveg,fried diet for 1-2 weeks. Avoid street hotel fast food This would keep your bowels healthy and fit. Stool testing,to control ameba and giardia protozola/ bacterial infections,would keep you away from its recurrence. Thus these complaints are from-giardial / bacterial food induced GERD with burping of trapped gases in the chest with bubbling up of the gases in the chest with acid reflux esophagitis, causing cough ultimately.And wound need treatment for 4-12 weeks in some cases. 2 weeks treatment with Prilosec is therefore ineffective.
