Hello
I'm writing this cause I'm a little scared as to what is happening to me.
Back in July, I began to feel kinda fatigued, and a little tired. I was able to fight through it but in the begining of August, I had this huge (what I thought at the time) flu. I also was having weird bowel movements. My stomach had this huge pressure with it (where I couldn't breathe). I also was retching (vomiting without anything coming out) quite a lot. For a week, it was really bad, then it would be alright. I also found that it would get better as the morning went on. For a month, I was fighting this, and took 3 antacids from a prescription and I stopped because it didn't have any effects. I changed the way I ate as well, more softer foods, no pop, no junk.

At the end of September, I had a both an upper GI and Lower GI scope. It turns out I dont have any Lower or Upper GI problems. I had to fast for 2 days, during that time, I felt better (probably because I didn't eat anything). I was getting better and better (in terms of my bowel), but I started to feel this really weird pain in my chest after the scope. Now its been 3 weeks. Almost every day I have been heartburn. I'm scared that I'm killing myself not taking the medicines. My doctor has been telling me that I have GERD, but I've been researching on the net that I could have a bacteria infection of some sort (other than H Pylori). I dont know what the results of the Lower and Upper GI is, (in terms of the biopsy) because I haven't gotten it back. However, my doc is saying if I did he would have called me by now. Also I've had more pain right around the part where the bottom of the ribs meet (around the sternum).

Anyways I been trying the Ginger Juice on here, and it has worked somewhat for the heart burn. I've also tried the honey which seems to be working somewhat as well. (this is my second day on both)

So my questions I want to ask is.

1. Does the Ginger and Honey work to kill the bacteria in my stomach?
2. Should I be taking the meds while doing the ginger? or should I take them at all?
3. Would 3 weeks of heartburn kill my esophagous and also create cancerous cells?
4. What are some foods I should be eating? or SHould not be eating.
5. Any type of exercise help with this?
6. Is this curable?
7. Should I go for another upper GI scope?
8. Is it normal to feel good then bad then good then bad having GERD?
9. What is ACV? and some other Acryonims I should know for this fourm? HCL etc...
10. Should I ask my doctors just to give me Antibiotics to just see if it is Bacteria? Cause I heard they only check for H Pylori. Any suggestions?

I'm so scared. I'm 25 and I've never experienced anything like this before. I feel so alone. All I want to do is roll up in a ball and cry. Please someone help me.
