I had the BRAVO PH procedure yesterday. So far I have tried everything I can think of to cause heartburn and chest pain to no avail. I know this sounds crazy because when I have my "episodes", I have hours of intense pain in my chest, and we need to see this happening while the chip is on my esophagus. I stopped taking my PPI 7 days prior to the procedure. On the 4th evening forward I started getting acid indigestion and by the 6th night (night before my procedure), I had the worst "episode" of heartburn and chest pain I've ever had...pain lasted 7 hours! Now when they need to see these symptoms happen, I can't get anything to even start occurring! Does anyone know why this is happening or any ideas to get things stirring? I will be turning in the monitor tomorrow early afternoon and even though I don't want to go through the pain, I want them to be able to see it while it is happening.
