Oh god so much this. I have had acid reflux since childhood and the doctors keep telling me to stop eating spicy food because it's destroying my insides bugs-no

I choose to pay the blood price

i never leave the house without my Gelusil antacid anti-gas. i'll have two after any greasy/spicy meal. it helps a lot with heartburn and acid reflux. and an omeprazole cycle every once or twice a year.

How does that cycle work? I thought omeprazole just 'lined'. Does it repair as well?

tbh i'm not sure, but i can usually tell when i feel a little acidy lingering for a few days, so i do a 14 day cycle of that, and it sets me back to feelin fine
