Last night, after Hayley went to sleep (mighty quickly too, between being under the weather and under the drowsy power of cough and cold medecine, poor monkey), I came out to the kitchen and made three tuna salad sandwiches for George’s lunch today. Because, you know, I’m a good wife that way.
There was a little too much left over to fit into any of the sandwiches but way too little to keep. There was maybe a tablespoon left in the bowl. Rather than waste it, I decided to put it on a little biscuit and eat it since I was hungry anyway. It was 9 at night. I went to bed at about 11:15.
At 4 in the morning I woke up thinking I was going to DIE from the acid reflux. That was a whole seven hours after the fact. Even now, at almost 10 in the morning I feel a little gurgly. I think I’m going to have to pop a few antacids to get it to stop.
ONE TABLESPOON of tuna. Stupid acid reflux.
Oy. That sucks. Mine kicks in around 3:30 every freaking afternoon(repeat lunch anyone?, making the preparation and comsuming of supper fairly unpleasant. Which antacid do you prefer? I like the Strawberry Gaviscon chewables 🙂
I’ll never forget the acid reflux thing. I got it everytime I ate green peppers, yet I couldn’t stay away from them because I craved ’em so bad!
I never took antacids. My doctor always told me not to?
I easily ate 10 smooth dissolves (TUMS) yesterday because of reflux/heartburn. Just think, you are SO close that you won’t have to deal with it for much longer. Water at this point kills me! Can you take Zantac? That and Smooth Dissolves are the only things that keep me sane at this point!
