How's your headache now?
Have you tried slippery elm powder? It's a powder you can get in the US and you make it into a hot drink and it provides a layer of mucous stuff along your gut. That may help your gut with the reflux.
It does wonders for my stomach problems.
Reflux is more common in adults than it is in babies. Your right though, babies can get it. But you can develop reflux at any age in life. I bet if they did a study though, they would find that most adults who develop it, once had it as an infant. My 2 year old keeps getting weened from his acid reflux medication, only to have it show up again 6 months later. He has no signs of any problems the whole time he's off the meds, then one day all of a sudden he's throwing up again from bad reflux. I hate it. I don't want him to be on medicine the rest of his life.
