A member asked:
If i eat after about 7 or 8 pm, i often wake in the middle of the night with a sour, acid taste in my mouth and a lot of coughing. what's causing this, and what can i do to make it stop?

Reflux: Likely reflux. Allow for more time between dinner and bedtime. Also keeping track of type of food, such as spicy and /or acid food or drinks may make it worse. If symptoms still severe talk to your doc about a trial of anti acid drugs.
