Fluid at night?

i was wondering if any one could tell me why when you lay down at night to sleep sometimes fluid creeps back up and you constantly have to swallow at night it is very annoying?

this is not a joke ! this might be really serious dude , it's called nocturnal aspiration , nocturnal means at night , aspiration is the action of reflux things from your esophigus and they might reach your lung and cause serious lung infection , here is something i feel it's benifitial ,


Heartburn/Reflux Disease, Nocturnal Aspiration Syndrome, Asthma, and Bronchitis
Gastro Esophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) is common, but much more common and more severe in the obese. The pressure in the abdominal cavity is substantially elevated in the obese. This fact in the obese interacts with some more common physiologic causes of GERD. The burning pain in the mid chest (heartburn) can be severe and often necessitates regular stomach acid blocking medications. However, sometimes GERD can be hidden. The stomach acid may burn the esophagus and cause esophagitis (mild to severe inflammation). The esophagus may become strictured, or scarred and constricted, causing trouble with swallowing.

Whether the reflux is symptomatic or not, approximately 10 - 15% of patients with even mild symptoms of heartburn will develop a condition called Barrett's esophagus, which is a pre-cancerous change in the lining of the esophagus, a cause of esophageal cancer. Sometimes regurgitation type symptoms are prominent. Some patients with GERD will bring up acid into the throat, where it can go down the lungs where it doesn鈥檛 belong. This can burn the vocal cords and cause laryngitis. When the stomach contents are inhaled, it can cause choking and coughing especially at night. It can cause bronchitis, pneumonia, and/ or lung injury. This is called nocturnal aspiration syndrome.

Obesity is associated with a higher rate of asthma (reactive airway disease) overall, about 3 times normal. It is said that up to half of adult onset asthma is caused by GERD. Reactive airways are often caused by acid reflux (described above), which can irritate a sensitive airway and provoke an asthmatic attack. The improvement of asthma after surgery is often very dramatic, even before much weight loss has occurred.
Weight loss surgery is curative of GERD and is the procedure of choice for morbidly obese patients for GERD treatment. Previous conventional laparoscopic reflux surgery (which we perform on non-obese patients) actually is a relative contraindication for weight loss surgery because it scars the stomach and esophagus. It will make subsequent weight loss surgery dangerous.



good luck , vote !

might have acid reflux
