I've been reading all your comments, and it seems that you're very knowlegeble guy. Better than my doctors.
I have a question, maybe you can help me.
It seems taking digestive enzymes make my symptoms worse (GERD). Do enzymes contribute to producing more acid? I got IBS as well, and I've read a lot of stuff on IBS and GERD. Taking enzumes is highly recommended for improving digestion, but I can't take them. I think when you have too little stomach acid, you need enzymes to digest your food. But what if you have too much of acid. Could it be the case with me?

Thanks
