Still cant get rid of this darn acid in my tummy & other rants

not starting out good today...woke up to shower and no ho****er, so i went into the basement to find water leaking all over the place.  had to shut off the main water supply.  Was supposed to meet Heather D. for lunch and mall walking, but now i have to get a plumber in here to fix my leak.  And did i forget to mention, that since the night before surgery its been one thing after another....one of my front porch steps broke and i fell thru it the night before surgery,  banged up my shin pretty good.  its still bruised and i have a knot on it.  THen my refrigerator decides to collect puddles of water inside, so while i am home recovering i have to call in a repairman to fix it...clogged drain from freezer.  THe glass in one of my bedroom windows has a nice crack in it, so my dad had to tape that up.   My vacuum cleaner died.  ........i think thats about if..for now Lol

On top of that,  I have been fighting acid issues since i had my surgery.  I've had GERD for years and been on nexium, but that hasnt been helping.  Tried zantac and now prilosec...no go.  I have a constant acid taste and mucous (?is this foamies?) and indigestion kind of burps.  ENOUGH already...  i dont have pain/heartburn, just the constant 24/7 acid.  Finally, after trying 3 meds i called my surgeon's office and spoke with the nurse.  She is checking with Dr. Eid and will get back to me later.

whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa i just want to curl up in a ball today and cry
I dont even feel like eating breakfast, so im having a protein shake.

if i had a shovel i'd dig a hole and put my head in it

hugs... and vent away girl... you have had a string of bad luck...

don't know what to tell ya bout the tummy acid... but I know after my surgery I had a lot of snot issues... which lead to me having the foamies and other snot puking fests... that finally went away by month 3...

but do you think the tummy acid issues are from what you are eating... like something is trigging it?

Hugs and hang in there... if you lived closer i would let ya use my vacuum because I don't vacuum lol...

Thanks Shannon.

No i dont think that the acid is related to anything i am eating or drinking.  Doesnt seem to change with any foods or drinks or with empty tummy.  Actually I've had this since i woke up from surgery, it just hasnt gotten better. 

I just got a call back from my surgeron's office..they are calling in a new prescription for me to try.  I go back to see them in 10 days, so if this doesnt help we will address it then.

I am so sorry to hear that you have having such a rough time. Sounds like you have been through the mill in the last couple of weeks. I haven't had any acid problems but I am having alot of discomfort and pain, I am so ready to just feel like myself again. And gas did I mention that everytime I think I have it all "blown out" that my belly blows up again like a balloon? Anyhow HANG IN THERE, everything always has a way of working itself out, (((hugs))) Belinda
