GERD
"Having a diet consisting of beer, pizza, Copenhagen Marlboro, most of my 18-33 years, my GERD had gotten so bad that I could not even swallow. I mean almost choking on anything besides fluid and applesauce. Doctor performed &quot;tube down the throat maneuver&quot; and stated that I had a grotesque esophagus! Started Nexium right away, worked wonders."
