Gayle are the samples still working? I have acid reflux that has been controlled by pre acid for 12 years now. Tried prilosec for awhile but it didn't last 24 hours. Only have problems if I eat greasy fried.

Yes, I think I am a bit better - I am not coughing nearly as much and my throat feels better. BUT - I am trying to lose some weight and last night about 9:00 I was STARVING AND I MEAN STARVING - so I gave up and ate a snack. This morning I can feel mucus in my throat so I'm sure that stirred things up overnight. Bad girl. Bad girl. I won't do that again (well, I'll try not to anyway).

I think it's true Sandy, what works for one person, does not necessarily work very well for the next person. It's so individual.

Thanks for the advice, Gayle. I will talk to my doctor when I see him. They used to think nexium caused cancer on a long term basis. It does have a bad reputation!

Have you tried sleeping with your head and chest raised (like on a wedge)?

You probably can snack in the evening. Try jello, or something bland. Bread also don't cause a lot of acid. You will figure it out soon. It is amazing how well we know out own bodies if we think about it.

Isn't aging fun?
