Distractions

[beckyblack]

Someone uploaded a load of episodes of 60s spy drama, I Spy onto You Tube, which kept me up too late last night and now I am knackered and need to go to bed early.

Today was the first day off the medicine that keeps my stomach from making too much acid. Now I have to see if the heartburn and reflux comes back. If so, it's back to the doc's for more investigation. They're already ruled out the heliobacter pylori virus (which is a shame as that's fairly easy to treat.) Hope I don't have an ulcer. I have been working on changing the diet the last few weeks to see if that helps. Had to give up bread and wine. Fatty food is dodgy too.

Well, I will see how it goes.

My Sal has had similar problems all her life. She avoided choccy and onions, too. Ended up having to have a fake lower oesophageal valve made.

TMI, I know...

*hugs*

Eep, sounds alarming!

It was interesting, certainly!

Hope the medication has worked or they find something else simple to fix. Having to analyse everything you want to eat before you eat it is a real pain after the first flush of successfully spotting a trigger food. Not to mention boring!

I'm discovering some new things I haven't tried before though, so that's cool.

Oh, I hope you get that sorted soon x x x

Hope so. Have to see how it goes over next few days now I'm off the medication. It's one that takes a few days to wear off. Then I have to go back to the docs for follow up. ::sigh:: Thank goodness for the NHS.
