@guineapiglover I have a gerd and slight motility issue myself, but I can’t take the ppi’s because they cause cutaneous lupus in me. I’m with fibromyalgia (like with child, but less favorable) and when it comes to sleep issues and brain fog, it is challenging if you don’t want to rely on meds. Anyways, I now have a CPAP for apnea, and it appears to force the acid back down my throat, and I now longer cough phlegm in the morning. Also, my brain fog is almost non existent. With no gerd riding up my esophagus at night, it is less inflamed, making it easier to swallow. Maybe this is possible for others as well. Well wishes to you!

@guineapiglover thank you. I’m already GF and dairy Free. It’s so strange as it came out of the blue and hasn’t gotten better. They started me on Duloxetine and gabapentin. I only had 2 nights sleep since I started 6 days ago. It’s very frustrating as yesterday I felt ok, but went out for a friends bday. I didn’t eat much and nothing that really should have bothered me but I was up at 4 am with pain and it hasn’t subsided 12 hours later. Nothing seems to help.
