I joined this group about 3 weeks ago when my dog was regurgitating food and 
water.  The Vet said might be dilated esophagus and gave metoclopromide, 
sucrafate liquid and prolosec.  I made a ring for his neck and fed him vertical 
and held him for 25 mins after food and water.  Well today-----  he is eating 
out of elevated bowl and (after gradually shortening the hold time afterwards), 
is not being held and going outside immediately after eating.  I am still 
giving metoclopromide and prilosec.  Next week I will stop and see if has a 
relapse.  I am scared to do that since everything is going so good.  But do you 
think I should continue it for life and not stop?
  It makes me wonder if he had ME to begin with.  His xray showed normal 
esophagus.  Just don't know.  
   I would like to stop his vaccinations.  Do you think it could contribute to 
his problem?  Without this sites help, I was considering having him put to 
sleep.  Thanks for all the info and support.
