Hi. The book arrived yesterday. Yes, Dropping Acid, The Reflux Diet, Cookbook and Cure. I've started reading it. It makes sense that the pepsin coming up is re-activated by acids in our diet. I am really worried about myself. I walked 4 miles Monday and then biked about 9 miles. Tuesday I was really out of it. Monday I thought I had the energy, but now I realize I shouldn't have done the biking. I pushed myself too much. I am not feeling positive about my health and will read and follow this book. The acid and the pepsin, I think, have really hurt me. My surgery for the LINX device will be 4 weeks ago this Friday. I was so much hoping it would cure me, but it hasn't. So, I really need to work with this myself. Thank you so, so much for suggesting this book. Seriously.

Hi Robyn, just got back from a cruise this morning. So glad you bought the book, should be mandatory reading for all who have suffered from GERD!! Stay on a strict diet until you start feeling better...then little by little you can add foods that previously bothered you. Everyone is different...it's hit and miss what you will be able to eat. Although I'm feeling 90% better and did notice that I do get tired much faster than I use to. Sometimes I'm so tired I have to take a nap to feel better. I hate that low energy feeling! But for me...I have to remind myself how lucky I am...that I did get better, because I have read all the horror stories about how sick people are on a daily basis. Read your book, hang in there...I still feel that 4 weeks out is not a long time, but I do think there a certain foods you might or should not eat in order to feel better. ok...take care, take it easy!

You know, I really appreciate hearing from you. I'm 68 years old. Maybe feeling so wiped out after over doing it Monday has something to do with my age. I'm glad you told me that people with GERD can feel tired. Today, Thursday, I was outside and bikes just a little. Then after an hour I felt like I could melt into the ground - just exhausted again.

I hope Raisin Bran is low acid. I'm having Raisin Bran with cashew milk right now.

I hope you had a good time on the cruise.
Take care.

i had a great time!!! just take it easy ... be patient. your body will tell you when you are eating something wrong. 1 month is not long after surgery!

Likewise, a debt of gratitude is in order for the possibility of the almond drain. I don't know whether it's curing this, however it tastes great and doesn't make my stomach do odd things.
