Study Summary
There is little evidence on the effect of a nickel-free diet on gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). We hope to determine if a nickel-free diet improves GERD symptoms in patients with a nickel allergy by having patients complete a questionnaire on their GERD symptoms before and after initiation of 8 weeks on a nickel-free diet.
Primary Outcome
questionnaire to assess severity of GERD. Total Score: Calculated by summing the individual scores to questions 1-12. Greatest possible score (worst symptoms) = 60; Lowest possible score (no symptoms) = 0. For the purposes of our study, a score of 13 or above is considered symptomatic for GERD.
Interventions
- OTHER Nickel-free diet
