Re: NEWBIE IN NEED OF SUPPORT....JAY

[Guest guest]

--- Thanks Jay!

See, that's what I have thought for all of these years and why I

have been taking acid reducers and such for such a long time. But

since I was told it " probably was " my gal bladder, it all seems to

make much more sense now....the foods that would trigger me, the

acid reducers not working, the boring pain in my chest and back, the

soreness on my right side.

But I guess there's nothing 100% certain till I get a

scan....hopefully coming in the next few weeks! :0) Thanks so much

for responding to me...and I'm sure you'll hear alot more from me in

the coming weeks.

(Search the web for acid reflux for symptoms of that.) If not, try

one of the easier flushes. However, if it's the hiatal hernia/acid

reflux the citrus juice will make the problem much worse.
