water and heartburn

Hi frogholler and a warm welcome to HW....Hope you come to love this wonderful gang as much as I have. As for your water inquiry, we have had some discussion regarding it before...so the answer to your question is Yes, some of us do (I am one of them). Unfortunately I cant remember what post the info was in. I do remember it has something to do with the water stirring up the juices (acid) and making it easier to "come back up". I seem to remember that it doesnt really matter where the water is from...tap, cooler, spring etc etc. nor did the temperature matter (just in case you also suffer from IBS or other digestion problems...room temp water is the best way to go). Im sure someone will be along soon to either guide you to the original information (it wasnt taht long ago...maybe a month, 2 at the most). Members found relief through different methods...mine was through pills and a carb regulated diet. Hope I helped at least a little until someone else can give you more solid information. At least you know you arent alone  . Best of luck. Keep us updated and please, feel free to post any other questions and also share your own experiences and any advice you have. Welcome aboard.

Hi, I want to thank you guys for your replies and I'm going to start keeping a diary of what I eat and the times and also when I have a drink of water as it doesn't happen all the time.  Seems to give me trouble when I have water a few hours after a meal. I really don't want to give up my fluid intake each day and try to get at least 6 to 8 glasses a day. Will keep you posted.

Hi Sean, Sonetimes I'll just take a couple titralac antacid tablets if it gets real bad but usually, it will go away on it's own within a half hour or so.
