    Pray you never recognize the truth behind why that user keeps saying that, because that will mean that you have a serious problem that doctors will have failed to help with.

    That user’s experience was my experience too — with a highly-rated doctor.

      You know dude, I’ve been there myself.

      My sister’s been there, my whole family’s been there, I dated a gastroenterologist for 7 years, I created a computer-based training program which was first year medical-level for a research drug for reflux.

      This dude’s just driving the conversation down to the basest, most surly Facebook boomer-esque sniping. It’s completely obnoxious, it misrepresents the actual medical facts behind the symptoms and treatment. One line cynical statements are just thought terminating and I detest them.

        Maybe he’s just in pain and you could try a little patience and empathy instead, especially considering your informed position.
