I presume your practice incorporates a holistic approach then.

:thumbs:

Thank you for what you do.

you're welcome my friend, I'm a traditional chiropractor , no gizmos etc and tend to be slightly outspoken;) about big pharma as well as " real food" nutrition ( similar to your reccomdations) vs chasing the latest fad supplements:w00t:

i have been going to a doctor and he just gave me another type of medicine that seems to work. Just worrying about the future even if I do eat better and everything
Suit yourself.

Can't say I didn't try.

But I do want you to read this over to see if you see what I'm reading.

Because I'm at a loss.

I have silent reflux which makes my chest sore, I thought I'd never be able to vape because of it but I have to choose liquids carefully as any fruit or tobacco will set off LPR so I usually stick with sweet vapes like caramel, vanilla etc. Gonna give coffee ago too.
I also avoid high NIC, 6mg seems good but cravings are still there and I vape no less than 60/40 VG Pg and no more than 50/50.

I have Omeprazole but generally take Ranitidine as it works.

Well touch wood I've not had any more probs as I'm only vaping sweet juice and no juice apart from a mango one which is a bit too strong in flavour.

60/40 vg pg @ 6mg seems to be my sweet spot.

I was on omeprazole 40mg once a day for 1 1/2 years and ended up with B12 deficiency and an arrhythmia. Try anything else but a PPI! I current vape 80/20 and haven't had too many issues, but I have weaned myself down to 0.25 of nicotine on my way to 0.

Why avoid ppi? It's the only thing that Is helping me atm
