I don't even know how flea managed all those less thans and greater thans in her post by mistake.

Sue, that's kinda...I been there.

I managed to make it out the other day, with company, without my wallet, and everyone was depending on me having my shit. Luckily we were close enough to home that we could run back (of course, I wasn't driving) and get stuff. So not my finest moment.

Wallet must stay in bag. Must stay in bag.

java, P got a script for your co's stuff. Hasn't filled it yet, but it's a start. Her doc was the one who brought it up. I have my fingers crossed that it's magic for her as well.

Damn, I think I actually have to go to a doctor. This necessitates finding a general practitioner - I've been here a year and haven't bothered. I've been having terrible heartburn and acid reflux. I never ever had that before, and I haven't changed my eating habits. Right now, I'm hungry, but my esophagus is on fire and anything I eat is going to make it worse. Anyone have any remedies for heartburn that will last me until I can get to the pharmacy and score some Tums? Will milk help?

baking soda and water

teaspoon to 8 ounces of water

And prepare to burp a lot.

Gah, still so keyed up over stupid testing. Hopefully swim will relax me.

Hm. I don't have baking soda. Maybe I have some Alka-Seltzer, though.

I swear by milk to settle my stomach, but my Dr. says it can actually increase acid production.

Drinking water will help to dilute the stomach acids. And Pepto Bismol is great, if you have any.

If you're going to go the pharmacy, I would go for Zantac or Pepcid AC as well as Tums.

I drank the rest of the milk, which wasn't very much. Then I found the unopened box of Alka-Seltzer. Plop, plop, fizz, fizz. Am now waiting to see if I feel better. Was surprised that it didn't taste bad.

Wow. Shiocton is very close to my home town. So, these are my people....
