Vagus Nerve: What helped you?

@rozy288 have you tried sleeping with the head of your bed raised? I have done that the past few years and it has helped tremendously. Recently we got an adjustable bed and that is even better because I can raise the head of the bed higher on nights I experience worse GERD symptoms.

Bed risers are available on Amazon and any store with a bedding department. You need just one under each caster or leg of the head of your bed. I tried bricks, books, etc. before, but they just shifted around. The risers are more effective and steady.

I have 3 big pillows and a small memory foam pillow that I sleep with , so I’m sleeping very raised for years . I even have a huge wedge pillow but I found that less comfortable.
I’m practically sitting up .
My body produces so much gas , although I’ve tried everything they make and then some .
Thanks for suggestion .
I’m doing the best I can but honestly it’s tough .
