B-Worthy, here is a longish article how to test and why post-meals.
http://www.phlaunt.com/diabetes/14046889.php
Since you know you have diabetes, skip the hi carb challenge, determine what BG does 1, 2 and 3 hour post common meals. You may find some innocent food keeps your BG higher longer. Discuss readings with your doctor as they improve, maybe you can lower the dose already. With strict LC eating, many see rapid improvement.
Lovinita, if it is GERD, there are many natural products or home remedies to try as well, e.g Digestive Licorice, aloe juice (maybe hi carb?). Found them listed on the People's Pharmacy website when taking DH off his PPI..evil rebound with those drugs, avoid if you can.
Nancy, Interesting about BP meds causing a cough...can't they come up with any drug that does not cause more seemingly unrelated problems? Thanks.
