Question by B: Any gastro/ Intestinal specialist out there who can help? GERD?
I am in Iraq, so my resources are limited as to natural remedies and i don’t want to use drugs. I haven’t had any issues with stomach problems until i moved to this new base. Now I have only been here a week, but the only other thing i did was microwaved oatmeal in a plastic bowl non microwavable safe , because that is all i could buy and i ate oatmeal for three days in a row in the morning. Now all the sudden i have really bad acid reflux, stomach pain, fullness feeling, burping, throat burning, ect… really bad never had it like this before! Its been a long time since ive had reflux problems, years in fact. do you think the microwave and the bowls i used has anything to do with it? My food did taste weird in it and i thought about it but i didnt have any other bowls and given my circumstances (Iraq). Guess it was stupid to do it though… If anyone has any natural solutions that would be great thanks alot

I think it was something else. Strong coffee perhaps, soda, or any spices taken with the oatmeal. You didn’t say any of that, but it would not be the plastic bowls.

I would suggest that you see a doctor right away.
Is there a possibility of mold in your environment? Pay attention to if this happens to you in one place more than another, laying down rather than upright, in the office or your living quarters. Has there been any water entry in any of the areas you frequent? Your body will give you a lot of clues, you just have to pay attention.
