A member asked:
I have symptoms of laryngopharyngeal reflux. would a ph test diagnose this (differentiate it from allergies) and how is it done?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
GI: The GI specialist would scope your esophagus and place a probe or two on it. YOu will be wearing a portable receiver to record the pH and frequency of reflux. The probe would come out with your bowel movement within a couple of days. Most of the time, LPR has some typical laryngorhinoscopic findings also.
