Visidor, I had bad heartburn and reflux for nigh on 40 years (started when pregnant with my first child), weight gain and bloating more recently, until last summer when I decided to diet. First thing I did was give up bread (shop bought) and the heartburn etc. completely disappeared and hasn't come back! I managed to lose 2 stone fairly easily. Bought a breadmaker and now no problems. Just a suggestion - may not work for you.Vizidor wrote:Get well soon.
I've only just begun a course of antibiotics (Amoxicillin + Clarithromycin) for a tummy bug.
I had a persistent heartburn for around two years before I decided to visit the doc. He suggested the symptoms could be cancer, however, as I'm gaining weight rather than losing it then that was probably not the case, although, I should still get it checked out all the same.
The tests came back positive for an unhealthy bacteria - which I've forgotten the name of already.
I told the doc it was very disconcerting knowing there's a nasty bug living inside me. He reassured me there are lots of bugs living inside me - keeping me healthy; on my skin, the tongue, the ears, nose, throat - and I guess the respiratory system as well.
stay lucky, dude
My course is done.sgt.null wrote:Vizidor - had gone back to work for two days. but between the humidity and the cold of the vaults I am worse off than before. so the doc gave me an even stronger cough medication to combat this.
Cheap bread will give me heartburn every time.Iolanthe wrote:Visidor, I had bad heartburn and reflux for nigh on 40 years (started when pregnant with my first child), weight gain and bloating more recently, until last summer when I decided to diet.

As danlo said when he picked me up at the airport for the first 'fest, "I was going to hold up a sign which said, 'Men,' but realized I may be approached by others with an incorrect idea."wayfriend wrote:Thanks Mensy (? Menny? Mee? Marge?).Menolly wrote:WTG, way!
