Hello,
I have been having excess stomach gas (or I think that is what it is) that has been bothering me for about 5 months. The gas seems to be at the top of my stomach and I can't get it out. I find myself with pressure in my chest, not pain, just a lot of pressure. I had a barium x-ray and they thought they saw a duodenal ulcer but then I had a scope and they didn't find anything. I don't have H-Pilori and I have had a stress test to rule out a heart condition. I have tried leaving out wheat, milk, sugar, etc. and nothing seems to work. I have tried Gas-X, Prevacid, and another Poton Pump Inhibitor and that doesn't seem to work either. Does anyone have any idea what this could be??? It is driving me crazy. I was such an active person just 5 months ago and now I feel tired, and I am really getting sick of this feeling.
Thanks
Brian Walker

Brian,
Lack of magnesium in your diet can make all muscles in your body not work properly. Every cell contains magnesium -- that includes your esophagus.
My wife had a swallowing problem that was cured with taking magnesium!
I suggest you try taking a magnesium supplment several times daily to increase the absorption.
The daily requirement is 400mgms daily

Thanks Harry,
I have recently tried taking a vitamin supplement and I have been feeling better everyday.
Maybe the magnesium is helping.
I really appreciate your reply.
