Treatment For Acid Reflux Disease

Q.Can endometriosis cause acid reflux? I was diagnosed with endo last year in July and I have gone on treatment for it. But now I am not on anything just managing it with pain killers and whatever else works. I have had acid reflux problems since I was pregnant with my son and that was more than 2 years ago and it has gotten worse now. So can anyone here help me please?

A.Here are my opinions about the treatments of this disease the pain killers eventually cause stomach problems and could be causing acid reflux or even ulcers. I think you must be confused, endometriosis is a condition of the uterus, how could that cause reflux. To help with reflux, elevate the head of your bed while sleeping, don't eat two hours before going to bed. Don't especially eat anything acidic. Go to the doctor, it might not just be reflux disease. He might prescribe nexium, which should heal your esophogus if it isn't something more serious. Plus losing weight always helps with reducing acid reflux disease, but some people have it even without being overweight. If you are a smoker, especially get to the doctors.
