Thanks for sharing your story. Did you try taking meds (like PPI) for acid reflux?

  Yes, and they did help when the reflux was worse. But I only needed them for a while and then stopped taking them completely. I still keep a Tums by my bed at night but very rarely use it. I also keep a bottle of water, and usually that's sufficient to ease any irritation. Another thing I remembered after writing the original - is that I reduced alcohol consumption to basically zero. I would drink a beer once in a a few weeks before that, but now - zero.
