A member asked:

I have bad gerd, been on 40 omeprazole , cut out bad food, and am taking dgl - nothing is working its bad all day every day what else can i do , pleas?

See Gastroenterology: If you have been on Omeprazole and taking it daily for over a month, and have changed your diet appropriately, then you need to be further evaluated. A GI (gastroenterologist) may recommend that you have an endoscopy done to be sure it's not an ulcer or other cause of your symptoms. Best wishes.
