I would also have them check his heart to make sure all is well on that

front! But yes GERD can manifest that way. Micah after he would eat and have

PT

in school would sometimes throw up because he didn't have enought time to

digest his food.

Yesterday at church Ben was exerted himself quite a bit. Anyway he kept telling

me after that he had chest pain. He then proceeded 20 minutes later to throw

up. He kept commenting about his chest hurting.

The pediatrician suggested that he might have GERD even though it was a few

hours after he ate. The activity might have caused it to get worse.

Ben has never had any issues before that I have known about. They said now that

he is over (15) and with his diet he might have developed it. I'm waiting

tohear what they want to do.

Does anyone else out there have any experience with GERD and what did they do

about it. Any suggestions/comments would be appreciated.

Thanks,

M.

This is just another name for acid reflux, isn't it? What we called

indigestion when I was younger and took bicarb for. Then Madison

Avenue came up with acid reflux so the pharmaceutical companies could

replace bicarb with a very expensive prescription.

This is another name for acid reflux. My son always complained of chest pain and

would throw up after eating. This stopped when he was in about 8th grade but he

would still comlapin of his chest hurting. We couldn't find a serious reason for

this and his dr. said he bet he was having heartburn. Started him on Zantac 75

once a day and not a complaint since. That was a few years ago! Maybe you could

ask your dr. if it's ok to try this.

in MD, Mom to Angel, and Caitlyn, all uniquely-abled.
