[QUOTE="Mep, post: 957313, member: 211362"] I have oesophageal dysmotility which is the same thing as gastroparesis but it's in my oesophagus so they can't call it that. I also have a sliding hiatal hernia which tends to slide into my chest when I've just eaten and then slides back down and gives me diaphragm spasms at times as well. But my theory is that if I'm still burping up food hours later that the hiatal hernia may have held up the digestion maybe. Well that's just a theory. I also do chronically burp because of my oesophageal dysmotility as well. I've had lots of tests done, including the gastric emptying study, barium swallow, and oesophageal manometry test. I'm on 25mg of amitriptyline at the moment, I did start out on 10mg... but I have my gastroenterologist and my urologist wanting to use the same drug to treat 2 different things. My gastroenterologist increased the dosage... he wants me on 40mg actually but I'm still on 25mg. But I need my treatment reviewed anyhow as my GI and throat spasms have been worsening. [/QUOTE]
