Hey there, sorry I was slow getting back to you.

I've stopped taking the peppermints capsules atm as an extra problem was too much to cope. I found that I could only take a peppermint capsule before breakfast (so on an empty stomach) and then I HAD to have breakfast afterwards. If I did anything different, then I would be burping peppermint and it would trigger my reflux.

God knows why this happened. It can't be the time in the stomach, because I was better if I had it on an empty stomach, but with food straight afterwards?! Plus, I think my tablets are supposed to be properly enteric.

I'm giving up on this. I've worked so hard to get my GERDS under control and this was sending me back to square one. Without the peppermint, I've even managed to reduce my Lansoprazole dosage.
