So in 2017 I was diagnosed with silent herd/reflux , I had lost my voice had a nasty cough tickle in throat all that. Went to Dr said I had silent herd/reflux due to the fact I don’t get like heartburn or anything like that no matter what I eat or drink. Fast forward to this December 2023, never had an issue since that one time in 2017. Took my daily omeprazole and was good (when diagnosed in 2017 I started at 2 pills a day). Then in beginning of December started a little cough and tickle , thought it was allergies but turns out by end of the weekend voice was completely gone again. So at this point I’m like ok it’s clearly reflux , but why, had no lifestyle or diet change or nothing. So I figured go back to the 2 omeprazole a day, week and half doing that and no help. Decided to try Famotidine just to try something new maybe my body is too used to the omeprazole. Week and half doing that, no change still no voice , throat hurt and tickle and cough. So I called my doctors, they told me to take both the famotidine and omeprazole together twice a day call us back if no change in a a week. Week goes by no change. Call them back and basically got brushed off saying “oh well it could take up to 2 weeks and this and that maybe go to urgent care” that call was literally Friday before new years. I have a physical on the 10th so I wasn’t gonna try to double up on co pays. But here I sit, few days away from my physical, taking more than 2 doeses a day of famotidine omeprazole and sporadic tums for just trying to get something to help, no voice , still tickling throat , it’s all a little better but it should be this way. The fact the dr brushed me off is what kills me when they SHOULDVE helped and that’s gonna be discussed at my physical and maybe the last straw along with other things about getting a new one. But at this point idk what to do to get relief, sleep has been awful, life has just been awful. Any way there’s my rant
