GI stuff has been acting up all day and I'm running out of ideas. What actually worked for you at this stage?
Reflux kept me up last night, tips for today?
I had the same thing early on and found that eating smaller amounts more often settled it down for me. Bigger meals were the trigger, so I stopped letting myself get properly hungry before eating.
Smaller dinners worked way better for me than anything else, and I stopped eating within a few hours of bed. The reflux nights got way less frequent once I made those two changes. Hang in there, the 22 lbs I'm down came with weeks like this too.
What time are you eating dinner? Moving mine earlier helped more than anything else did
Did you eat anything close to bedtime? That was my trigger, and moving dinner earlier fixed most of it for me.
Curious whether yours hits more at night or in the morning. Mine is almost always the morning after a late dinner, so I've been front-loading my eating and it's been quieter.
What time are you eating your last meal? I moved mine earlier by a couple hours and the nights got noticeably quieter.
What time was your last coffee? I only ask because mine was usually around 4 and it lined up almost exactly with the nights i was up coughing
Curious whether you're eating close to bedtime? I moved my last meal earlier by a couple hours and the nights got noticeably quieter for me.
I keep a wedge pillow under my shoulders now, not just my head, and that angle seems to be what actually helps me.
How late are you eating? Shifting my last meal earlier did more for the night reflux than anything else I tried
How far ahead of lying down are you eating? I moved my last bite to about three hours before bed and that did more for me than any antacid.
How small are those dinners actually? I tried the early cutoff thing and still got burned until I dropped the portion way down
Curious whether you mean nighttime reflux or the all-day kind, because for me those needed totally different fixes.
idk, how long before bed are you usually eating? I moved my last meal earlier by a couple hours and the nights got noticeably quieter
honestly how late in the day are you eating? Shifting my last meal earlier did more for the night burn than cutting foods ever did
I'm still figuring out my own triggers, so curious whether yours hit right after the shot or later in the week?
What time do you eat your last meal? Shifting mine earlier by a couple hours did more for the night reflux than anything else i tried
I slept propped up on a wedge of pillows for about a week when mine was bad, and that beat anything else I tried.
I slept propped up on two extra pillows for a few nights and that got me through the worst of it.
