  • we do not have it in Bahrain, how can i apply for having it?

  • is this better than the esophyx procedure?

  • Yeh, it doesn't sound as though it's an amazing breakthrough until they get better results from it. They ought to find something that works with 100% of people and eliminates completely requirement for drugs and has less nasty side effects than a Nissen fundoplication.

  • i hear a low carb diet works almost every single time. going to try it, but it seems hard. these procedures should get better then 50% at getting people to stop their meds.

  • 60 to 70% respond well??? what does that mean??? and only half can stop taking meds come on........ sounds bad to me
