Heartburn and acid reflux

Bleh, I had some acid reflux today. It's the third time it happened, not bad enough to warrant medication, but I'm not looking forward to progression here.

Watch out for food allergies. I continue to have stomach and (some) heartburn problems, but the level has receded and is now more 'annoying' than 'excruciating' like it used to be. I would drink orange juice frequently some time ago, and even a tiny bit of that and my stomach would go absolutely berserk. And I mean a tiny bit, even when mixed with vanilla ice cream, etc. Needless to say, stopping that helped, but it was still really bad. Finally after awhile I realized I was also intolerant or allergic to chocolate when I ate a rich truffle, the most concentrated form of it, and had a heartburn explosion almost immediately. Since I stopped eating chocolate my heartburn has mostly calmed down, but I still get the bloating and other problems unfortunately : (

Anyway, my short term pain reliever is opium tea...not really encouraging it because it is illegal, but it's pretty easy to make and its not illegal to buy the pods, so yeah. If you ever use something like that, just beware of the addictive factor; I've stuck to two pods as my dose ever since I started and not taken it day after day, and been fine. Tastes bad though.
