You have asthma, allergic rhinitis, and Gerd. I have all of that too. My asthma has been under control for the pass 20 years using Flovent. However, you can no longer get it in USA as of October 2023. I get it from Canada but it ships from New Zealand. Takes a month to get it. Almost the same price as I was paying in the US with insurance. I rarely have to take an emergency inhaler and then only when I pick up a bacteria. I have severe asthma since birth. Keep your asthma in control and that should help. Allergic Rhinitis, been taking allergy shots for the past 55 years, they work plus I take a Clartin D everyday. I pretty much only have allergies during April, when mold is at its peak and a little during the fall. Gerd, stop eating carbs and it might disappear. I try not to eat a lot of sugar but the bread, pasta, rice and potatoes cause severe heartburn with me. I use to take a Nexium everyday for it but when I went on the keto diet I lost 17 pounds and severe (going to the hospital severe thinking I am having a heart attack severe) heartburn disappeared. It reappears during the holidays a little bit when I don't watch my eating. I get my carbs from red bell peppers, onions, and other veggies. Pre- diabetes when away and cholesterol went from 232 to 180 . My body quit having aches and pains so much and I felt fantastic. This might not work for everyone but sure has worked for me. My entire family has been plagued by bad heartburn and stomach acid forever. Son also went paleo and his disappeared as well. Find what your body can do and try changing your diet . .. . could help.

Could you please post a daily menu ? Do you use dairy? I'm on a blood thiner so there's a lot of green veggies I can't have. Any suggestions on casseroles or soups? Are there crackers you can eat? I think I can stop the bread or do you just replace flour with something else? I would appreciate any info you can furnish. Thanks.
