Reply to "Third week of unexplained illness. Any ideas?"

@Brellis I think it’s more likely that this will disappear mysteriously (as most blockages do) than that it will persist without a proper explanation. In the meantime, there are some low-risk things you can try. You could see what happens if you reduce stomach acid for a few days, with something like Pepcid-AC or Prilosec (these are over-the-counter), perhaps supplemented with an antacid like Gaviscon or Tums. A few days of treatment won’t definitively fix anything, but it might give you a better idea of where some of the discomfort is coming from. If you see good results you can extend the treatment.
