What is gastro-oesophageal reflux?GORDGORD is most commonly found in the throat and tonsils. It is more serious than the other symptoms associated with gastro-oesophageal reflux. Symptoms include heartburn, acid regurgitation and other symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, constipation, diarrhoea, headache, and dizziness. In some cases, this has been accompanied by a new difficulty in swallowing.

GERD occurs when the lining of the esophagus (gase point) begins to sour. This sour taste will dissipate when acid is reduced to salt (gase point loss) and swallowed away from stomach contents (gase point loss). If this happens, ring a stomach acid-suppression drug class (eg Zefry, Prograf) and contact your doctor.
