They take licorice and remove the part that raises your blood pressure. If you hate the taste of licorice then not a good tip. That stuff works wonders, and is delicious. I eat some after each "dangerous" meal, kills acid reflux and is way more natural than pepcid !

Sadly he's beyond that. With the hiatal hernia it can hit him like a ton of bricks even when he's taking a daily Rinitidine. He's supposed to have another appointment soon with the specialist. I'm talking to my wife about discussing the possibility of surgery to correct the hiatal hernia with the specialist. He's 17 years old and the specialist said if they didn't know better they'd have thought they were looking at the esophagus of a 40 year old. I don't want him to fight this into adult life where it makes him physically sick when he has an episode.
I picked up some white fish that I'm going to bake in the oven with light seasoning. I have butternut squash, zucchini, egg plant, yellow bell peppers and small red potatoes that I'm going to cube and heat in the oven with olive oil, sea salt and pepper for the menu tonight. I'm going to try and go very light meals for the next week or so to see if I can help the poor guy feel better.
