Re: What wives tales have you heard

Let me see if I can get in touch with my dad...he is the heartburn med guru. He has barretts and has been going in once a year to check his meds and get a throat scope for about the last 7 or 8 years

Re: What wives tales have you heard

Thanks otherwise I have to ask my DR tomorrow.

I can't believe I forgot to ask the other day, guess cause I was in so much pain/fear

Re: What wives tales have you heard

I agree with the keeping the legs elevated for a while after DTD, it worked for us too!! I don't know if considered an old wives tale.

Re: What wives tales have you heard

I was on Prilosec (like Prevacid) and few years ago right after we got married. My dr. asked me if I was even THINKING about TTC since. She made me swear to be extra careful not to get pg. while on it and to stop meds if I changed my mind about trying. I guess no acid reflux meds are advisable.
