wow, so i guess you were stressed for your whole life to get acid reflux as you get older? But how would you explain Foxrac's case?

During my 20's and 30's I had severe chronic migraine headaches. Then one day they just stopped. The hives started in my late 20's. No one knows why.

Foxrac's health is his business, so I can't say.

and btw, I love eating spicy food, ever since I was young...but I don't seem to have any problems with those spicy food?

I never had problems with food before either. :)

My dad and his mother had digestion problems. My grandmother also had migraines. There could be a hereditary element. Since my dad was an alcohol it's hard to know because his health problems could have been alcohol related. (He died of liver disease.) :dunno:

My grandfather once told me that in his youth, folk in Brooklyn used to crush roaches and mix them into water for headaches. Can't get old-tymer than that! :lol:

To be really truefull I don't care if you are a liberal or a conservative. I do not think anyone should have whether the live or die decided by their bank balance!

TOTALLY AGREE! We need healthcare reform. Seriously

True. I considered myself a healthy person when I was young. Running road races every week, bicycling, cross training, rarely sick, no meds needed, etc. Then the old bod started breaking down. Pa-tooey!

Certainly an eye-catching title for a thread. Then I start to read: acid reflux....college financial aid....military corruption....global warming....:confused:

My point is that there are people out here being destroyed by medical debt, and the Republican are more concerned about a deficit than them.

Sorry to hear about your health.

However, the way Obamacare has been written needs to be repealed. We do not have a healthcare crisis in America, we have a healthcare COST crisis.

Healthcare should be affordable and should not be mandatory to participate. In other words, you should not be *required* to have health insurance or face imprisonment (such as Obamacare is written).

After all, America is about freedom, not requirements.

2 choices -

1. unaffordable and not mandatory
2. affordable and mandatory

which?

Republicans failed. Democrats failed. for past 30+ years.

..... which means option #3 doesn't exist and will never exist.

It's funny - my mom said she doesn't understand why her friends her age (she's 62) complain about health problems while she feels better and happier than ever in her entire life despite being morbidly obese and having ankle implant. Lucky her. I hope she continues her happiness for the rest of her life.

Yes, a positive attitude, like your mom has, is very important. Good for her! :)

The funny thing is, I didn't feel sick, and I wasn't complaining of health issues. I didn't know I had most of these problems until the doctor told me after my routine physical.

Ironically, I'm more "perky" and active than most of the students at the college. :lol:

hahaha she's defintiely MORE perky than me.. if I work with her in gardening, I quit in one hour because it's so much work but she'll continue for three more hours. She has three jobs and they demand a lot of labor... I don't like labor work. lol

Yep. :P I have mild reflux.

Spicy food won't cause reflux for me but greasy foods certainly will do it for me. ot only that, it will cause problem with my bowels as well. If I eat high fat foods for days on end, I will end up with a severe case of diarrhea. So will dairy based foods.

If I eat too much, it will also cause reflux for me as well. I hate having it go up thru my nose while I'm asleep.

Ewww...I know what you mean.

Yes, greasy bothers me more than spicy. Also, anything eaten at night is bad for me.
