Has your mom tried Cimetidine   I suffered excrutiating pain from acid reflux caused by a prescribed medication and this is what my med/alternative doctor recommended. It worked miracles for me right from the first pill.  In the past I have used organic apple cider vinegar (with the mum in it)  and it worked really well but then the condition was not as severe. I hope this helps.

He said he had reflux after the op it stopped only when he realizes he&amp;nbsp; may have been eating a bit to much. He was having six small miles a day he said it less then half the size of bread and butter plate. It took him a while to get use to the fact he had no stomach. He ask if you mum was having the vitamin K injection. He&amp;rsquo;s the one who told me about the anti Cancer diet and to take lot of antioxidants to stop the cancer going else were. I suppose it&amp;rsquo;s hard when you&amp;rsquo;re got no stomach to put thing in to. &amp;nbsp;My self I think it strange your mum has reflex as she has no stomach to produce acid. He told me &amp;nbsp;The drug, known as H2 blockers, inhibit the production of stomach acid it used for patients with reflux also use with perm babies. To stop reflux pickled Ginger grate for reflux. I fight cancer by eating the fruit Pawpaw one quarter 4 times a day &amp;nbsp;then an antioxidant like 1000mg of Vitamin BI-O C at every meal 3000mg a day &amp;nbsp;please tell your mum &amp;nbsp;one of the best ways to help your body fight cancer don&amp;rsquo;t eat or drink any think that has simple &amp;nbsp;sugars in it theses are sugars we put in a cup of tea, or coffee, cakes, biscuits &amp;nbsp;etc as cancer loves sugar. If &amp;nbsp;she can take antioxidants this should help stop the cancer spreading to other parts of her body. it&amp;rsquo;ll &amp;nbsp;give your mum a fighting chance. Take care and God bless Ray &amp;nbsp;</description>

(who has PC to the bones)&amp;nbsp;seems to help.&amp;nbsp;Sophia</description>
