I've been on RabletD for about 20 years now to manage really bad burning acidity after meals. I know it's Rabeprazole and Domperidone, but I'm still having this bloating issue. Could it be that I have a wheat allergy that's causing the bloating? What should I do about this?

Given your symptoms, here are some steps you can take:

- Hydration: Drink plenty of water throughout the day.

View allI'm really struggling with this issue where my chest keeps getting filled with gas for the last 56 days. I've been drinking a lot of water which helps a bit, but then it just keeps happening. I'm burping all day long and last night I couldn't even sleep because it was so uncomfortable. Even when my chest isn't full, gas still forms in my stomach. Now today, my chest is actually hurting, and sometimes my neck starts to burn because of it. I'm not sure what to do; any suggestions?
You may be experiencing symptoms of acid reflux or GERD. I recommend taking an over-the-counter medication like Omeprazole (Prilosec) 20mg once daily before breakfast. Additionally, you can try Simethicone (Gas-X) to help relieve gas and bloating. Make sure to avoid trigger foods like spicy or acidic foods, caffeine, and carbonated beverages. Elevating your head while sleeping can also help reduce nighttime symptoms. If your symptoms persist, it's important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation.

I've been struggling with this really intense hunger pain that just won't go away, and it's so bad it makes me feel like throwing up. I have this acid reflux thing too, and my bowel movements have been all over the place for months. I've been eating healthily, cutting out all the processed stuff, no soft drinks, nothing unhealthy, and I even started working out. But it still feels like my stomach can't digest food properly. The hunger pains hit me so hard even after eating. It's been like this for years, but the acid thing is kinda new. I'm 24, female, and a bit overweight. Any ideas about what's going on or what I should do?
Consider consulting a gastroenterologist to rule out underlying conditions like gastroparesis, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), or small intestine bacterial overgrowth (SIBO), and in the meantime, try keeping a food diary to track symptoms, eat smaller, more frequent meals, choose low-acid foods, avoid trigger foods, and consider probiotics or digestive enzymes to support gut health,
