It would be super nice if I didn't have these acid reflux reactions several times a week.  The only cures I've yet figured are 1. getting enough sleep (i.e. it being weekend- well, some weekensd, anyway) 2. wearing super-loose clothing or 3. eating massive amounts of chocolate.

My brother has that problem. He is on medication for it, avoids certain foods, and has the head of his bed
slightly elevated to keep the acid from traveling upward at night.  :nerd!:

That's a weird-looking guy.

I am not qualified to say for sure, but I think he has acromegaly.

Crazy, I'm halfway to crazy
Suicide would waste me
Homicide would break me
Tongue tied and tied to the tongue
Tongue tied and tied to the tongue
Oh, is life as bad as dreams
I guess that's just the way it seems

MRI with contrast, why?  :orly:

Cervical and Thoracic Spine! Trying to find options to deal with pain that I have had since childhood and is only getting worse. Medications don't help, at all. Even heavy narcotics. Looking at injections or possibly surgery. Need to find out what all is going on besides arthritis, kyphosis, scoliosis, spondylolysis, two bulging discs, a pinched nerve, and apparently a once fractured vertebrae I never knew about.

Something might be going on *besides* all those?  ???

Sleeping on the left side may be helpful too.

Think that my polite "no thank you" email, as a reaction on an invitation for a supportive "co-sufferors" meeting of carers and parents of people on the spectrum wasn't received that well. Got a very short reply saying they had only sent it to me to inform me.  :asthing:

Think so, and rightly so.

I said I thought it probably would not be beneficial for my self-esteem to go.  :laugh:

Serves them right for calling it a "co-sufferers" group.  ::)
