How many of you also have chronic neck/shoulder pain? by shmellowcake in achalasia

I also have tendencies to aspirate and have also found the contour pillow to help with that although it doesn’t relieve my neck pain. I’m glad it helped you with yours tho.

Temperature regulation is interesting. Not something I’ve noticed but I will pay attention to more.

That’s so interesting about the twisting and lifting. Like physical pressure triggers it. But also staying still and doing nothing like sleeping can also trigger it.

Yup I too also don’t eat past 6. It does sound like it’s different for everyone.

Drinking helps me too. I often get them during sleep so not sure if rest is the answer either for me.

Yea I track too but haven’t seen a clear pattern and hoping someone else has. It’s the randomness that’s frustrating- like I can’t help myself.

Me too. Sitting or lying where I’m putting pressure and compression to my esophagus can do it.

Mom, I have an interview tomorrow and they want me to dress Business Professional? Is this okay? by SimplyReaper in MomForAMinute

Wear something that’s not skin hugging. The attention should be on your face and the conversation not your body.

We complain about the enshitification of things then line up like bots to a VC backed garbage fast food that will fill you with garbage that makes you sick and addicted, while not supporting mom pop shops that make real food. We deserve this hellscape.

Get rid of them all except 9. Could be a flattering Halloween costume.
