Q: have been triing to loose weight for years nothing working. can it be from gerd&hiatal hernia
Hi Debbie,
Loosing weight has become the national past time it seems!! While dealing with GERD and Hiatal Hernia can be distressing, I am not sure it is the reason you are unable to lose weight. Remember, online sites are great for getting information to help you manage your health however they should never take the place of your doctor's solid medical advice and care.
You can read about GERD here and Hiatal Hernia's here. There is a good sharepost by a member named Leonard here about living with GERD and Hiatal Hernia's.
I hope you find something helpful here. Take care and stay in touch and let us know how you are doing!
