Beats the heck out of me, Newport! I'm just reporting on symptoms I've
been experiencing which were not there before I started--that's all!
Besides, isn't GERD from the esophageal area? if it is not, and it
comes from lower, perhaps what I have isn't GERD after all, but
wherever the belching and burning originate. It is discomfort in my
esophagus which I'm experiencing.
