Thanks Gary. Really interesting reading. I'm still trying to adjust my diet to find something that works. My biggest issue is waking regularly with horrendous reflux. Burning like you wouldn't believe plus coughing and vomiting. It just happens every couple of weeks and puts me down for a couple of days after. I've tried everything to prevent it that I can think of.

You might ask your doctor about trying sucralfate liquid 4 times a day last dose at bedtime and baclofen 5 mg at bedtime.

I have lived with this ever since my 2010 esophagectomy , read my profile for more but a couple of questions. Do you sleep inclined? Do you eat before bedtime and have you tried different schedules and foods?

I found that for me, that eating something big right before i go to bed helps act like a blocker and keeps the acid down where it belongs. I realize that Drs tell you to never do this but after trying all of their methods and still miserable I decided to try my own way and found that this works for me for the most part.
That's not to say that it still doesn't happen but its just not as often.
