Hi Millie. I took quite a few different alternative remedies. I seen a practitioner once a month since February. He tried me on different combinations to see what worked. At first I took some herbal called Roberts K and Centaurium amongst other stuff, and I think that really helped, I also tried digestive enzymes, and then back on centaurium and also a few other homeopathic meds. I think they all helped in their own way, and I now would never underestimate how much good herbal/homeopathic remedies can help, but I also believe that it just takes time, and more time, for your stomach to get back to some sort of normal after being on the ppi for so long. I also used to drink marshmallow tea/meadowsweet, tried DGL, the lot(anything was worth a go!!) I was seeing my GP and the alternative DR and the mix of ideas etc worked out well for me. Im not taking anything herbal or homeopathic at the moment.
As for weight - At the beginning of the year I lost over 1st I felt so awful, in the last 6 weeks, since ive really felt better, Ive put about 8lbs back on!! Im not complaining though!!
