After modifying my diet in accordance with medical guidelines I have found that it has only worked to a moderate degree to stop acid reflux attacks. As a result I have booked an appointment with my local doctor to learn more about other alternative acid reflux treatments to suit my situation. Apparently you can get medication that may be a more viable option. I have read accounts of people using surgery but I do not know if my condition qualifies for this. Most of the resources that I have read indicate that surgery only becomes an option if it s due to some internal problems that are contributing to the condition.
