Hi Susan, Glad to hear from you. I don't have any acid reflux. I had a laproscope (?) down my throat on 5/24/00 to see if anything was wrong with my stomach or duodenum but everything was normal. I have an apt. with an internist is Phoenix (3 1/2 hrs. one way) on 6/12/02 to see about having an ERCP. I've had a lot of burning in the middle of my back today & my right rib cage is really sore & tender. My story is on the Adhesion Quilt, I've been there & done that!Keep in touch.
