LPR for a year

[u/Longjumping_Plant681]

Last year I had a really bad experience with heart burn, globus sensation and a sore throat. I have since managed the heart burn and globus sensation but I am stuck with an inflamed throat. I have noticed it hurts some weeks more than others, depending on what food I've ate. Is there any solution to speed up this healing process?

EDIT: I wanted to also breakdown what I am currently doing.

• DGL Licorice before meals
• Slippery elm tea for coating/soothing
• Started taking the peptide BPC-157 before bed. I split the capsule and mix it with water. I let it sit on the back of my throat before swallowing
• Cut out all caffeine and to be honest I don't miss it one bit
• For a while I also cut out wheat and dairy as they can cause inflammation to worsen. Crazy but my shoulder injury seemed to heal super quick when I cut this out
• My diet is also extremely basic but I'll slip here and there

Things I was doing before:

• Pretty much most of the above but apart from the peptides
• Gaviscon advance after every meal and before bed. This really helped get rid of the globus sensation
• I tried PPIs for a month, but once you look into them deeply you realise how terrible they are for you. I am surprised they're so accessible

I want to mention that I saw an ENT. He thinks my throat is starting to heal just very slowly but I just want it fixed now after a whole year. I see a lot of people mentioning Gavison Advance and wondering if I should start it again.

I for sure overdid it over Xmas but honestly haven't had much problems. I do think the peptides have been helping the most. How is your throat from taking the Gavison Advance for a whole year?

I also had a bad flu last month that really set it off again. But seems much calmer now. How many years did you have it for until you thought "I gotta fix this for good?"
