Reflux
I can't answer your question in a scientific manner, but I can speak from my experience. I've had "heartburn" a few times since I've had surgery. There were a couple times i just felt the acid issues and started back up on my prilosec, to make sure that the acid wasn't an issue. I don't know HOW it happens, but I've felt it, so it happens, lol.
It 100% cured my acid reflux, from day 1 in hospital, my reflux was bad every night. I'm 8 months out, has not come back, some out here think it does come back, I sleep wonderful now and save a fortune not buying Nexium I used to take several a day, and the reflux would make me have to get out of bed at night.
