A member asked:

33 yr male having issues with indigestion and upper abdominal bloating for 2 months. bloating partially relieved if i belch but sometimes i simply cannot. primary dr put me on a 4-week ppi but 4 days later very little improvement. what could this be?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

I would give any treatment/management changes to address this issue at least 2-3 weeks before expecting noticeable change. In the interim, also avoid caffeine or dark chocolates within 6 hrs of sleeping. Avoid laying down for 2 hours after any meal. Rx and behavioral changes can easily improve things if you give it time to work.
