Thanks for your replies!
I did get the Ph test done and the results were pretty bad so that is one reason why they want it done. I believe Duke still does it with all TX. My friend was the guinea pig there 11 years ago and he has always said that I should get it done regardless b/c it made a huge difference in his health. I have read studies that say it is linked to some chronic rejection for SOME people. My friend couldn't even tell he had the problem b/c he had no feeling from it mostly due to numbness from TX. So you could have it and not know. I know they are still researching it but like anything else, research and proving beyond a doubt and being accepted by all the TX docs takes time. I take Prilosec which has worked for the acid reflux but not the regurgitation and frequent belching. They are putting me on Reglan and Nexium for the time being. I have done a lot of research myself but I want to hear personal experiences b/c those mean a lot too.
