GERD: Gastroesophageal reflux with emesis can happen from HCL acids in stomach and diet. Eliminate, milk, citrus and spicy foods in the diet. Drink a lot of water everyday (36-40 ozs/d). He can also take OTC Zantac for discomfort while resolving with changes in diet. Welcome to health tap, Dr. Ivy Fisher
