I think my trigger is specifically eating till I'm full, and even worse when I'm reclined, even slightly. I experimented with spicy food and that didn't do anything, so yay, I can add that back into my diet. I haven't experimented with dairy, but I so rarely eat dariy anyway that it's an unlikely trigger for me. bill – good tips!

Not that you've asked for advice but I'd suggest you treat aggressively. For example, the earlier I have dinner, the better. An acid reducer like Pepcid an hour before dinner works for me. And do look for your own triggers - for me it's dairy. The doc will give you the most common problem foods but much better to find yours specifically. Thanks for the Latin phrases by the way - that's the original reason I stumbled across your Blog. Best of luck. I’ve had GERD for some time.

Except I'd only fairly recently started incorporating spicy foods into my diet again (it raises metabolism temporarily), so that's a shame to have to take out. Bat - Love me, love my regurge.

That is sooooooooooo sexy. ” I spit up a mouthful of acid (and half-digested dinner) just getting up from a laying position on the couch.” That is sooooooooooo sexy.

That list of "rules" seems like something you would do (or pretty much do now) anyway. Wow I’m glad its not a serious condition.
