I may work in a hospital but I still have some questions for you guys about acid reflux. Its not that un common really. I never had a problem with it until like a month ago when it hit me all of a sudden now Not haveing it before i got kinda freaked out. I have noticed i cant eat pizza, pepperjack cheese, spaghetti, ketchup and orange juice. All those things kill me. I have tried alot of over the counter stuff and its not working that well. is there anything herbal I can try? What should I stay away from. I do drink soda and I can't stop drinking that. I get mean if i dont have my caffeine everyday. I dont understand what brought it on all of a sudden eather.  Cant get a straght answer from anyone. If any of you have acid reflux I would love to hear how you deal with it. Its horrible in the mornings right before i go to bed.

My husband always tells me to drink milk when I feel yucky like that, which helps, but I am also lactose intolerant.  

Prilosec OTC. Hubby lives on it. Was taking Nexium, but was too expensive so we tried the OTC and it works just as good. (Disregarded the 14 day thing. he's been taking for a couple years now, no issues, even cutting back to EOD now.)(oops every other day)

The two things I have found best for acid reflux are the Atkins Diet or drinking a glass of water with a tablespoon of organic unfiltered apple cider vinegar in it.
