Visited the ENT doc yesterday. She attempted to do the whole scope up the nose and down the throat thing, but I had a trigger happy gag reflex making things difficult. What she was able to see didn't show anything obviously wrong, so her running hypothesis is GERD.

I'm not denying it could be and I've had reflux before, but not like this. There's no real connection between food and symptoms and indeed the big symptoms only seem to occur when I'm in bed laying flat. At the moment, she wants me to keep taking Prilosec for at least a month and get back to her if things haven't changed.

Got my weekend planned! Tonight, the drive-in is going to show Smokey and the Bandit (they ran into licensing issues over American Graffiti). I'll probably make an appearance. Saturday night, there's a concert happening that my band promoter friends are well... promoting. I'll just have to purchase my ticket. I'm excited!!
