TMI Warning

The acid reflux/heartburn is getting worse.

I used to be able to take a Zantac and some Tums and combat most anything (especially if I was planning to have a big meal).

But it no longer works… last night we had a big meal (well, around 4pm) and I took my Zantac, and I woke up in the middle of the night just feeling horrible. Painful heartburn, even. Enough to make me pop FOUR Tums instead of my usual two.

This morning I felt okay, and of course I was hungry so ate a half bowl of cereal. Then when I was hungry again I ate a half piece of lasagna. Then later a PB&J sandwich. Then one blueberry muffin. Not that much food, really.

Or so I thought.

Tom got home early and we were up in the bedroom watching TV. I usually cuddle laying down next to him, but I just couldn’t do it. The heartburn was TOO much.

And then I just thought “I think I am actually going to throw up.” Less than 30 seconds later, I did. I think everything from the entire day came up. XX(

I felt better, of course, but the heartburn was still there. >:XX

I ate half a sandwich for dinner (I mean, I was hungry), and the heartburn is back. I hope I can sleep tonight without having to go downstairs to the recliner.
