Did your surgery go well?

Started off with panic attack/anxiety in 2020. Couple weeks later had a severe attack again, went for endoscopy, diagnosed with hiatal hernia, gastritis and grade A esophagitis. Change my lifestyle. Had better days but along the way, my hiatal hernia got severe. Had to change my eating habit. I recovered 40%. Then it had severe shoulder, mid back and ribs pain. Diagnosed with middle upper right curve scoliosis. My whole life turn again. No one can say what was the root cause off all this. Which comes the first triggers points. Too have all this is really a long long journey to recovery.

One of the reasons that I am an antinatalist is that I don't want a child that inherits my autism, my myopia and/or my hiatal hernia, but hey, that's just me.

How do you fix it? Surgery?

Hello ! I have been following and watching your videos for about two days and almost watched all videos about hiatal hernia in its playlist . I have been suffering about 5 years ago from a vary of unexplained annoying symptoms when I was doing abdominal exercises at home for 3 weeks and in someday I finished my exercises and went to bed then suddenly I felt like I can't take my breathe deeply ( I wasn't complaining from anything before ) , I felt my pulse was weak and felt dizziness , I went to bathroom twice at that night , I felt numbness in all my body including my face muscles and from then I suffer from a vary of unexplained symptoms like : Permenant shortness of breath , Insomnia , frequently skipped heart beats , heart palpitations , I was suffering from acid reflux but cured it with apple cider vinegar successfully , bloating at the upper left side even after drinking some water , constipation , diarrhea sometimes , mitral valve prolapse and cardiologists told me that it's trivial and can't do all these symptoms , I've done all important tests and scans and they all were normal nothing was found that can cause all these symptoms , my life style had effected a lot negatively with these symptoms so could a sub-clinical hiatal hernia be developed because of these abdominal exercises ? How can I contact you ?

I do yoga and it works

How to diagnose it?

I can't get any help. They just keep doing endoscopies and blowing up my esophagus. Then it just comes back again and they want to blow up my esophagus again instead of getting to the root of the problem ( for those that don't understand what I mean by blowing up my esophagus, they put a balloon down there and inflate it which increases the circumference I guess of the esophagus because all of the stomach acid is calling causing a stricture in there from scar tissue. So their idea of fixing it is just make the esophagus wider it isn't working and it doesn't help anything

For years I at times have some slight burning while eating under my left lower sternum. Reflux and even at night waking up with a bronchial spasm from acid .

Thanks I have your book I would not have known what to do the medicine does not work sometimes 😢

I have a 2cm hiatal hernia. Can i arrange a meeting via zoom? I would like to start your treatment.

Tried everything to pull down techniques and still can’t get mine to go down.. 3cms sliding hernia I have all the symptoms of this have been misdiagnosed with heart issues panic attacks shortness of breath bloating ect ect and still can’t get this awfull thing to stop choking me everyday.. Food portions have been cut down drastically don’t drink or smoke and I kept mysef fit and yet still got this thing which has now changed my life forever and even to get surgery here in the uk is difficult.. I seriously don’t want to live with this for the rest of my life id rather be dead than have this thing it’s awfull and very little help from doctors who just prescribe ppi meds which make me worse so I come off them..

Can this cause a tender stomach?

A recent CT scan showed that I have a small hiatal hernia, but I’ve been having big problems when I bloat up. I get that fluttering feeling in my stomach, chest and throat. It scares me. I didn’t know the hernia messes with the heart. Is this dangerous? I’m getting panicky when I Google. Google has me dying half the time. I have all kinds of symptoms going on when my stomach bloats, but the one I get scared about is the fluttering or pinching of the heart. Thank you for your wonderful videos.

I was diagnosed with a 2.6cm hiatal hernia. Is that enough to cause GERD? I’m confused. Never had here before and I eat extremely well as well read the acid watcher book. But still having symptoms.

I live in WI. Do you have clinics in WI? What do you do at your clinic? I had an endoscopy and they said I had a small hiatal hernia and didn’t think it needed surgery but now I’m wondering if it would help all my heart issues, especially mitral valve regurgitation. Thanks.

She has a distance program. Go to her KZread page and her website is listed there. On the website, the hiatal hernia program has its own tab.

I found out about three years ago that I have a small sliding hiatal hernia when they did a cat scan. I have heart palpitations a lot now. I pretty much just ignore them but sometimes they will make me very dizzy if my heart pauses too long. I try to avoid certain things that bloat me but this issue is happening way to much now I really don't know what to do.

The treatment is internal as well as physical. It differs for each patient but typically balancing the GI tract is key along with hormonal balance and then yes, as you mentioned, some special physical maneuvers (exercises come later) for our patients. Laboratory tests, diet and lifestyle changes are also part of the program. An endoscopy (scope) isn't always needed, it depends on the patient's history. We are a medical clinic and do testing as needed. I hope that answers it for you. Each patient receives an individualized program.

I’m suffering big time. In severe pain and can’t sleep from choking. Wake up severely congested. Was told mine was 2-3 cm. Had to have esophagus stretched also. I’m having to literally rip my bra off often from severe pain and swelling. Getting no sleep and am constantly weak and exhausted. I can’t bend over because it causes severe pain like something is ripping. I scoot on my butt to wash my floors. I was a CNA for 12 years doing heavy lifting and currently have an elderly 65 pound dog with severe arthritis that needs to be lifted several times a day. Anxiety and depression are getting worse especially with no sleep. Dr sounded like it was no big deal but there’s something awful wrong. Of course on omeprozole, sucrafate, famodadine, dycyclomime…etc….everything spelt wrong, sorry.
