Second night in a row woken by extreme indigestion, and now running to the toilet… I think this was triggered by bread (gluten) eaten 2 days ago (yeah, I occasionally have binge eating - Not proud of that).
Took a double dose of sodium bicarbonate and finally nearly comfortable enough to lie down again… that’ll teach me to get off diet / out of control…
And I have work in a few hours. Tis going to be another very long day…
Hope you had a reasonably decent workday given your loss of sleep. I’ve found that I don’t always feel miserable after losing sleep and getting through the groggy start of the day. I try not to let my usual expectations that a poor night’s sleep will always ruin the day that follows. When I lose sleep one night I usually have no problem sleeping the next.
sodium bicarbonate (Baking soda) is the only thing that works for me and I get heartburn nearly every night too. After a cup full of cold water with 1 or 2 TBSP of baking soda stirred together I feel better for the rest of the night (after quite a few burps).
Baking soda is better than all other “remedies” I’ve found for heartburn.
Drinking…drinking, could be not enough non caffeine fluid causing a little gastric disturbance? Alternating constipation with diarrhea? I’m Less than 50 carbs daily since July and find I have to add more water every month to keep the tummy woes at bay…
