Chronic condition: Reflux is a chronic condition usually that can be controlled by measures such as elevating the head of the bed with blocks or pieces of tiles, limiting spicy food, citrus, mint, chocolate, caffeine, alcohol and measures such as weight loss if overweight. I am glad the medication gives relief. Try losing 10% of your weight if you are overweight.
