I saw the doctor yesterday and she said I have GERD. She's trying medication first before having me see a gastro for an endoscopy.  I still feel like vomiting after I eat but so far I haven't today.  Anyone tried this med and had success on it?

Are you sure you spelled the name of the drug correctly? I tried doing a search to learn more about it, but couldn't get anything.


Trying medication first sounds like a good route to take. Keep track of any side effects you might have and hopefully this med will help you! Have you asked your Dr. about taking any anti-nausea medication?
