He put me on Nexium, which is very similar to Losec but a different variant of PPI and it has cut out the heartburn, but I still am having chest pain, so to be careful he is sending me for a stress echo test - ultrasound and ECG before and after a stint on a treadmill. <br /><br />Both GP appointments have been over the phone, but you haven't met your doctor in person before, I wonder if that makes them less keen to see you in person or more so? Or indifferent? <br /><br />But the stress echo test, obviously I will have to go to a clinic appointment for that, and it was deemed not urgent, but not to put it off. <br /><br />My experience with the phone appointments was good, once I got over the weirdness of sitting at my desk while talking to my doctor! <br /><br />Good luck sorting it out.

He asked how we were and I said "fine" and he said the prescription will be in the chemist next door. Obviously couldn't have the usual blood pressure check. Also had the flu jab sitting in our car with the nurse coming out of the surgery in full PPE gear. It is a bit like a ghost town round here at the moment.

They are trying to use alternative means to help patients rather than face to face at present to minimise their risk of COVID-19.

You will need to phone them to organise this I suspect. I have constant reflux, every single day but if I take one omeprezole (Losec) in the morning, I am now good all day with zero reflux. If I forget then by evening I suffer badly. I do know for sure that sweet foods, flour, carbs generally, make me 100% worse even with my pill. Besides high blood sugar this is the main reason I need to eat well. I'm not succeeding all the time... home isolation gives me too much time to think of yummy food to make! I am trying though to keep it low sugar and low carb. I use almond and coconut flour for baking and naturals sweetener instead of sugar. <br /><br />You will probably need an endoscopy to see if you have a hiatus hernia (as I do). I have been told I need to be on omeprezole all of my life as the damage to my oesophagus from reflux would be too dangerous. I suspect you might be the same.
