Hi, Charles, I have tried apple cider vinegar in several varieties. It
increases the burning under my upper right ribcage in the center. I do have
a hiatal hernia and with the upper scopes I have had the doctor says there
is slight inflammation there, but not enough to necessarily warrant using
antacids, leaves that up to me. Prilosec does not help consistently and I
suspect that even when I get relief for a couple of hours, burning comes
back way before it should. I use the prescription type of Prilosec . I
don't use it every day, since I doubt its efficacy. However, my medical Dr.
says if I took it regularly as soon as pain begins it would work better. I
do not want to use it though. Ruth

Hi, Leslie, The surgeon I am working with says the same thing. He very
much does not want to do the surgery except as a last resort . I am not
sure I can convince him about using alternative things, though. When I
mentioned Bentonite Clay, for instance, with regard to increasing fiber, (
withpsyllium), he said he didn't know anything about that.
Bentonite by itself is a very powerful cleanser, but in no way can it be
considered 'fiber'.
I agree with Gail - be very careful with anything that increases bulk,
which both fiber products and bentonite clay will do - although again, the
clay is not fiber.
I hesitate about things like homozon,
I would very strongly urge you to reconsider with respect to the homozon -
I really cannot imagine it causing you any distress at all, and I believe
it would provide much relief.
I not only hae to deal with my colon, but also with this quite severe
burning upper center ribcage burning which is almost harder to put up
with than the bowel problem.
Would you describe this as 'heartburn', or 'indigestion'? If so, one very
simple thing that will usually solve this kind of problem is, believe it or
not, raw apple cider vinegar - say, a teaspoon or so in an 8 oz glass of
water.
Most people don't know that heartburn is not a problem of too *much* acid,
it is a problem of not *enough* - demonstrated by the fact that adding raw
apple cider vinegar will cure the problem (it is good for many other things
as well).
Just be sure it is raw and organic (I like Braggs)...
All my best to you...
Charles
