Are You Suffering from GERD/Acid Reflux

If you suffer from heartburn, there is a very good chance you are suffering from acid reflux.  With the most common symptoms being nausea, regurgitation, or heartburn, acid reflux is an uncomfortable but treatable condition.  It is important to realize, that like any condition, acid reflux needs to be properly diagnosed before you settle on a course of treatment for your symptoms.

 Because acid reflux symptoms can be serious in some cases and because they are symptoms that are sometimes shared by more serious disorders, it is important for your doctor to properly diagnose your disorder.  This is usually done by a series of tests that can confirm diagnosis or rule out other potential possibilities.

 Barium X-rays can help doctors identify abnormalities in your digestive tract.

If you have concerns that you are suffering from acid reflux, it is important to realize that you shouldn't just simply pop an over the counter pill as a quick fix each time you experience this problem.  The bottom line is that acid reflux usually comes back and is a lifelong problem.

 The good news is that acid reflux is highly treatable once properly diagnosed.  Since, in rare cases, acid reflux can actually pose very serious health risks, it is important to consult a physician to confirm both the diagnosis and the seriousness of your chronic condition so you can follow the best treatment plan catered toward your individual situation.
