[quote=Anonymous]OP get two bricks (or a 2x4, or books) and put them under the each bed leg at the head of the bed. Now your bed is on a slight slant, not enough to notice (except maybe the first 5 min the first night). And don't eat OR drink after 6pm. (Three hours before sleeping) And don't eat all the foods that trigger it (spicy, tomatoes, etc) BTW if you drink hot liquids, stop doing that; you're irritating it every day! Especially if something is too hot (e.g. the coffee or tea) for your mouth, don't swallow it. It's still burning all the way down, you just can't feel it. After doing an endoscopy, my doctor had me on the purple pill for something like three months to get my esophageal sphincter to heal. It did; it's been about 8 years and I'm fine. But I did change my diet, because taking that long-term affects bone density.[/quote]
