I got very good at it and could regurg "on demand".

Dave, so did I, but all I had to do was open my mouth and

out it came. Actually sometimes if I didn't open my mouth

it came out anyway and heaven help anyone who was too

close. Several doctors have recommended emptying the

esophagus before going to bed to help avoid aspiration.

I am one of those that can't drink soda. I never was much

of a soda drinker, but it just will not stay down for me.

Cold water stops my spasms if I drink it immediately when

I feel one coming on, therefore I keep water in arms reach

24 hours a day.

I would also like to say welcome to all the new members.

I have had other issues lately that have kept me from

posting much, but I do read. I would encourage all of you

to read the back postings and to tell us where you live and

who your doctor is if you have not done so. If you go to

the site and click on database, you will find a group of

doctors and their location. If you have one that is either

good or bad, please list them here with your recommendation

or warning.

Just like Allstate "you're in good hands" with this group

of caring people. Feel free to ask or discuss anything that

is bothering you.
