GERD secondary to PTSD; Sleep apnea secondary to my service connected disabilities of rhinitis, sinusitis and COPD,; and for asthma. I was diagnosed for sleep apnea by the VA earlier this year and I had been diagnosed with GERD and asthma through private doctors. Also, I have a VA issued CPAP. I'm feeling really deflated right now. GABAGoodness is devoted to the discussion of all GABAergics, Gabapentnoids and VDCC inhibitors such as Pregabalin, Gabapentin, Phenibut, Carisoprodol, GHB, Benzodiazepines, Barbiturates, and more! We would like to show you a description here but the site won’t allow us. Added gabapentin and it’s life changing. I was in 24/7 pain before. Now I am not in pain at al but still get some weird cold sensation often. But in general I can eat, drink and even exercise. I’m even thinking about going on holiday instead of unaliving myself. Still on a low dose of amitriptyline too. Gabapentin and Baclofen prescribed for chronic chest pain, trapped gas and heartburn. 300 mg Gabapentin as needed 3x daily. Baclofen 5mg as needed 3x daily. I don’t take them every day, just when I feel symptoms are particularly awful. I want to know if anyone has experience with these meds specifically for GERD. I'm testing a low dose Gabapentin now. 100mg 3 per day, and will work up to 300mg 3 per day over a few weeks. It's only been a few days but not feeling much difference. I read some positive reviews of Amitriptyline on here so thinking I may try that next. I'm not on gabapentin but amitriptyline and when I started they gave me 10mg which did nothing for me. Now I take 20mg and it mostly controls my symptoms. I second the amitriptyline. Tried gabapentin for hypersensitivity in the throat and did not get much relief. A subreddit for people with the condition know as Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Members Online The stomach produces 1.5 quarts of hydrochloric acid a day how would eating a tomato be the extra acid that causes Gerd issues? I heard a lot of things about gabapentin being addictive, causing people to go to the ER, etc. I just wanted to confirm any suspicions here. I only learned these things after the visit but I'll likely go back and ask again. You're likely experiencing the hot flashes, anxiety and insomnia due to an interaction between Nexium and gabapentin. Nexium causes 20% less gabapentin to be absorbed. So you're likely going through a precipitated withdrawal. A subreddit for people with the condition know as Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). I’m on 300mg Gabapentin daily for GERD and Distal Esophageal Spasms. My worst symptom is a constant globus sensation (“tightness” in my throat) How often do you supposed to take the gabapentin? I suspect I have LPR. My main symptoms are burning throat and ear pain. I know it’s LPR because I’ve gotten some relief with PPI. But I would rather take gabapentin as gabapentin also treats chronic pain and fibromyalgia. Let us know if it helps you. Maybe I’ll ask my ENT for it. I am now on ppi medication. my reflux problem started to happen after gabapentin withdrawal before I didn't have chronic acid reflux. could gabapentin affect stomach acid ? I heard some of the acid reflux happen because of low stomach acid but I dont now if I have or not. I really dont want to use any ppi medication anymore There was excess poo in my system that was clogging myself up, and pushing all the acid up. I started some medication and a different PPI (famotidine which I highly recommend) and slowly but surely it was making the difference. I gave it time and I started feeling better. For me it ended up being laryngeal sensory neuropathy, so we think because there is no actual testing. I have never had issues with anxiety but sometimes people do as they age and don't even know it. I take 600 mg of gabapentin and .25 mg of klonopin. I spread out the gabapentin to 300 mg twice a day. A subreddit for people with the condition know as Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Members Online After 10 years on PPI, horrible side effects, and many doctor visits/tests. A subreddit for people with the condition know as Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Members Online what do you guys do about the morning burning stomach pain and nausea accompanied by strong hunger? I’m in the same boat friend. Had an endoscopy and ph test as I have (and still have) burping immediately after eating/drinking, stomach pain, farting, occasionally pain in ribs or below ribs at my sides, extremely bad depression and anxiety because my life is probably over at this point and I’ll be disabled forever. Yes, gabapentin can cause heartburn and acid reflux. It is considered one of the most commonly reported side effects of gabapentin and it can be managed. However, some case studies revealed an extreme heartburn, which led to the discontinuation of treatment with this medication.
