So I have struggled with esophageal spasms and nausea and the they did the barium swallow test and gave me diltiazem/cardizem and I did well for a little while and finally nausea went away and then all of a sudden boom they're back and the med isn't helping that much. So she ups the dose to double and the dizziness and headaches are now horrible and nausea has returned and of all side effects sudden weight gain! I have been following the same diet as I am supposed to and within less than a week I gained back 2 lbs! Well I am going back to follow up on how the med us doing on Tues so we will need to try an alternative treatment. The pain from these is horrible and feels like a heart attack but the other stuff everyday sucks too! :( I just want them to fix it!!!
