    I haven't heard about the arms and legs but the rest is right on target. In fact the arms might be justifiable as the nerves can be affected by tat part of your body. The whole condition is very annoying and it just never gets better. You have to learn to live with it.

    Yes, that's what it sounds like. My girlfriend and her son has had the gerd. To much acid in the stomach. When it churns up the little valve that keeps food down is helpless.The acids flare up the esophogous and gives you horrible chest pains. Feels like a heart attack. It actually burns your esophogous, too. Medications such as Nexium has helped, but there are other medicines that help, too. Convince your doctor that you have the symptoms of the Gerd. Don't eat spicy foods for a little while. No orange juice or foods that are high in acids for a bit till you get it intact. Slow down on the sodas , too.
