한의원에서 침 맞고 약 드시고 좀 괜찮으셨던거죠? 치료 중단하면 다시 시작이구요? 그러면 계속 치료받으셔야겠네요
(Concern) Gastroesophageal reflux disease ongoing for 2 years
Gastroesophageal reflux disease that started when I had COVID-19 still holds me back.
At first, I didn't think it was related to COVID-19... The nausea that started after testing positive for COVID has continued until now.
I tried taking medication and undergoing an endoscopy at a local hospital for a few months... I tried various things, but there was no significant improvement, so I went to a university hospital. I even had a contrast dye CT scan, but the results were not as bad as I expected given the symptoms.
There was simply an indication of inflammation.
I am a big eater and someone who loved to eat the most... Every time I eat, I feel bloated and uncomfortable inside, and it's really very difficult.
I've tried traditional Korean medicine treatments and also took herbal medicine, and it seemed to improve, but when I stopped the treatment, it started again.
Is it right to continue with traditional Korean medicine treatment? It's been over half a year since I started going... I'm worried about whether I can keep getting acupuncture like this.
