I nearly had op for reflux which was cancelled, surgeon thought my symptoms not severe enoughdly believe it myselfApart from this I had suffered for years with intermittent, sometimes weeks apart, pains in chest/back extending to my ear! Doctors gave up on it. A year ago, pain coming on, I sipped a glass of water, small sips continuously. The pain went away! Since then I travel nowhere without water and always at first sign of pain I sip the water.
Is this a mind over matter thing! I am an old woman and very practical not prone to airy fairy ideas but do feel I must pass it on just in case .........
