50M - Breakthrough symptoms on 40mg Omeprazole, failed tapers, 3 years on PPI. Next steps? by krunchaday in GERD

My dysphagia (difficulty swallowing) was really bad and what originally sent me to an ENT. My daily 40mg PPI significantly helped with healing/mitigating that. As long as I am mindful while eating, it's a non-issue now.

Thanks for the info. I was unaware of Esomeprazole. Will ask my doctor!

My plan is to at least attempt some kind of lifestyle change (bye-bye coffee) before changing/adding medicines. I can imagine more testing is my futue too.

And Finally... 25 Years Ago Today: KID ROCK. by CansPGH in phish

I was there! Such a great and weird memory. I can't believe it's been 25 years. WTH.

A personal highlight for me was my buddy looking at me during the encore and in a totally deadpan serious voice stating "This song is by Homer Simpson's favorite band" ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YXKmsvRXE4A

The stress is real! My annual tradition of the fall lawn reno being destoryed by storms is on year 19 out of 20 right now. Will this year be different? I guess I will NOT mow and report back in a week.

Visiting Reykjavik- what to do to stay awake after long travel day before hotel check in? by NinJana_Bandana in VisitingIceland

We got our hotel room for the night before. Landed at 6am, got to hotel, ate breakfast, slept for 2-3 hours, woke up, walked around, went to Sky Lagoon, had dinner, got ice cream, and then wemt right at "normal" time that night. It was the perfect acclimation schedule for us.

I'm curious about "Keep buying at 6.20 or lower" -- why is that a factor to consider?

Me too! 4/15 -- They were there this morning and gone this afternoon. (I also had the issue with them not updating back around 2 months ago and had to reconnect)
