I think I have good news for us all! I have a history of having a hiatal hernia (I was hospitalized a long time ago for one) and my doctor put me on Nexium and Reglan and told me to lay off caffeine, chocolate and other stimulants. Since then, my pain has dropped from a 9 to about a 1! I’m going to have an EGD on June 11. It is very possible that, if doctors can’t attribute your pain to anything else, you have a hiatal hernia. Hiatal hernias are very common!
