Guest guest Posted January 8, 2008 Report Share Posted January 8, 2008 HA HA that was good for a laugh!!!!! Nope never heard of it, but doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist!!! Just got through with my allergy testing…oh boy was that fun!!!! NOT! From: achalasia [mailto:achalasia ] On Behalf Of The Kovalciks Sent: Tuesday, January 08, 2008 12:19 PM achalasia Subject: Non-acid reflux.... OK, so I just had the probe pulled. Thank heaven! I asked the nurse why my chest pain increased as the pH levels increased. He said there is also non-acid reflux which is rare but can burn the esophagus. Has anyone ever heard of this? What are the treatments (other than a nissen)? Thanks!!!

So if your pain is from spasms than you would think you would have less of them with a higher ph.
