1. Try acid reflux on for size.
I hope for you that you never get it.

2. I've gotten it occasionally...
not enough, mind you, to say that I have acid reflux disease, but once or twice in the past and it was absolutely frickin'miserable.
You have my utmost sympathy. I hope you recover from it. :hug:

7. Poor you! After six years of hell I finally had the
corrective surgery. Three years and counting and I am still reflux-free with only twice-yearly bouts of heartburn. They say the surgery doesn't last but I don't care... it's a miracle. :hug: :hug: :hug:

3. Mix baking soda with water.
Tastes like crap but cures all heartburn completely and instantly.

6. Bullshit. Bananas give me heartburn.
Those things might as well be made of H2SO4!

:P

8. Mine stopped with a diet change.
I used to take an antacid several times a week. When I went on a reduced Carb diet my heartburn stopped. I changed my diet a year ago September and I have needed an antacid ONE time in the last 16 months.

YMMV.
