The peppermint supplements I read about would actually pass through the stomach and probably upper GI intact....no pepp. would be released. So it would likely not effect your GERD (my dad has that...he even tilts his bed up) Ask your doc about Gas X too...(sometimes I think the pains can be severe gas) Hang in there...

Thanks for the info. I am looking into the peppermint capsules. About the Gerd, been there with the tilted bed, all the PPI meds, endoscopes, sleeping in my laziboy, heated magic bags to the chest, and the nissen wrap surgery for GERD. Lived on the Gas X for a few weeks too. Just need to get this IBS under control. I love this board!! Very helpful and quick responses. Thanks!!
