President Barack Obama, who had medical tests on Saturday after complaining of a sore throat, is suffering from acid reflux, the president's physician said.

"The president's symptoms are consistent with soft tissue inflammation related to acid reflux and will be treated accordingly," Obama's doctor, Captain Ronny Jackson, said in a statement.

Acid reflux is a condition in which the stomach contents flow back up from the stomach into the esophagus, causing such symptoms as heartburn and sore throat.

Obama, 53, went to Walter Reed military hospital for a fiber optic exam of his throat and since swelling was detected, doctors decided to perform a CT scan as well, Jackson said.

Suck it up buttercup. All that lying and backstabbing causes indigestion. He should go buy some Zantac and quit whining.

“Acid reflux has physical causes that are made worse by smoking, drinking alcohol, caffeine and carbonated beverages, and eating certain foods that produce extra stomach acid.”

Looks like he’s in complete violation of the Michele Protocols.

One teaspoon of sodium bicarbonate in four ounces of water ends my acid reflux in under ten seconds.

On s rare day, it takes two doses. One generally works.

For a few cents, this neutralizes the acid and I go back to being a happy camper.

suffering from acid reflux...

Once in a while I get acid reflux, from sleeping in the wrong position and eating certain foods...

It NEVER caused a sore throat, felt more like molten lava coming up my throat...

So true. When I’m eating sensibly, I go months without acid reflux. If I don’t, I can get it often.

And I’m not talking about austerity. Just common sense...

Strange how they mention a CT Scan, CT Scans don’t diagnose Acid Reflux(My Mom and I both suffer from it) you have to have an Endoscopy done to diagnose it
