Guest guest Posted August 23, 2004 Report Share Posted August 23, 2004 Carolyn, I'm so sorry to hear of ael's struggles. It could be reflux. Perscribed protonix solved this issues for us. Ethan didn't have much vomiting, but often he felt like he was going to, and he almost always had stuff coming up into his throat causing great discomfort. The pharmacy had to order 25 mg tablets; it usually comes in too high a dose that cannot be cut in half because it is time-released. Hang in there. There can be many issues to iron out in the first few months of keto.
