Got GERD?

Yes, welcome to "Lyz's Life Sucks" - now featuring GERD!

What is GERD, you ask? Well, it's short for Gastro Esophagial Reflux Disease, also known as the Most Recent Reason Lyz's Life Sucks Ass! Basically what it means is that I eat food, my stomach's like "nah, I got enough acid to deal with right now, Throat, could you hold it for a bit?" And Throat goes "sure, I suppose I could do that". A bit passes and Throat gets sick of it, Stomach still doesn't want it, so Nausea tries to take care of the whole thing, resulting in a miserable Lyz. Fortunately, Willpower holds out, so the food isn't wasted.

So yeah, all this I find out after going to Cutler's today - that my stomach is defunct, and only eating regularly (rapidly becoming an unpleasant chore) and a $104.50 prescription could cure. Fun, eh?

Nuw if you'll excuse me, I have to go keep supper down.
