A member asked:

I had an upper scope done and it shows bile is sitting in my stomach. i have huge abdomen heartburn etc. no relief with meds. positive ana and rnp.?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Questran (cholestyramine): I have seen patients leak bile into the stomach area where it can really be irritative antacids and associated medicines don't usually help. There is a medicine called Questran (cholestyramine) which binds up bile and can be very helpful. Talk to your dr.
