I've had GERD for about 5 years. I have always taken Prevacid and was upped to 2 times a day. Eventually that stopped working, so my dr switched me to Zegerid. It has been working for the most part. The only problem I am having is I have a sore in my throat on the right side, from what I have been reading, I think it may be an esophageal erosion. This has been going on for a month or so. I was doing better and decided to eat some chips, bad idea. The sore is back on the right side, and now I can't eat... I was thinking about trying some Aloe Vera Juice to see if it would heal it faster so I can eat. Does anyone have any advice for me?

Thanks in advance!
 
I use aloe vera juice to thin the mucus at the back of my throat. It seems to work for that. I hope it helps you. Best of luck!
 
Is aloe ok to take with your regular PPI? Is there certain timing that should be done?
 
well my dr didn't know as he is not familiar w/ aloe vera juice but i usually like to wait 1/2 hour to be safe, but thats not based on anything at all:)
 
I took it a few hours after (4ish maybe), can't remeraber exactly. It did seem to work for a few hours, feel like I need to take it again for the throat sore. Anyone have a clue how often you can take it? I know it can cause upset stomach, just trying to figure out how often it is ok, I only took 2oz.
