Rise of the GERD!

Post by Lesley »

Lately my GERD has been TERRIBLE. Everything I eat is causing it. Nothing helps. I don't have Nexium, the only med that ever really help, and prilosec doesn't cut it. Literally.

Having to take the NSAIDS obviously is part of the reason I have MC. OTOH the GERD is unbearable.
Any ideas?

You can correct that problem by not eating certain foods for several hours before bedtime, (or not eating at all, for several hours before bedtime), and by not lying on your right side:

It is suspected that some of the hardest material known to science can be found in the skulls of GI specialists who insist that diet has nothing to do with the treatment of microscopic colitis.
