well its hard to say. I saw the doc last week.
Most people with apnea have some sort of reflux
disease simply because they hold the breath for so long at night. However the symptoms seem to show up after UUUP.
My doc also told me that fixing my apnae ( MMA)
might fix my reflux too, otherwise I need another surgery to fix the reflux.
its very frustrating!
