You will have been cured and survived, or not

Sounds like they’re “trying” everything.

When they determine that white burgundy’s may work, I’d like to sign up for trials.

Were you trying to show me a specific post? It's asking me to join something - a private club. 😊

"This miracle cure-all does it all. Clears up diarrhea, dry cough, runny nose, fever, loose bowels, loss of smell and taste, aches, pains, runny nose, and congestion otherwise known as Corona Virus. It even doubles as a paint thinner!"

Yep, 8X price increase in my area. Glad I had 6 months on hand.

Northwell Health is the biggest health system on Long Island. Many of the top LI hospitals belong to it.

I have ungodly heartburn, and there are a couple of tricks that I learned from ER and GI docs:

1.) Calcium treats heartburn quickly. If you need immediate relief, you can buy some time to get meds by drinking vitamin D milk. Sometimes this is enough for me, sometimes it isn’t.
2.) Antihistamines, for some reason, stop acid production in the stomach. GI doc didn’t know why, but it does. It’ll make you groggy, but Benadryl works for me. Promethazine was initially marketed as an antihistamine, so I now know why it was given to me for nausea and vomiting, and it’s what I take when the burn is unbearable. When my heart burn goes on for too long, I start to vomit up the acid.

Famotidine, however, isn’t totally safe. In doses on the high end of, “normal”, it can worsen renal issues over time, especially of taken daily.

Thanks for the info. I have been trying to drink more milk. It seems to help for awhile, but not so much after lying down.
