^ I feel you. I've had my moments of crippling back pain. Right now for me my nemesis is GERD. I've had it so bad in recent months, I'm on daily Omeprazol 20mg. Have just done three weeks no caffeine at all (coffee triggers it big time) not even tea. Also cut drinking right back to a beer or two at the weekend.
Have felt like a different person past three weeks, almost to the point where I considered just not taking Omeprazol. Until yesterday when reflux came back with a veangence. Its left me with the familiar clearing my throat feeling and hoarseness and shooting chest pains. I've tried every over the counter product I can think of. Daily Aloe Vera juice, Slippery Elm food and capsules. Acidophilus tablets. Milk Thistle tablets. Silicol Gel. Fruitin Gastro Gel Tablets. Fucking Yogi Throat Comfort tea.....
I'm going to have to keep a food diary and try and figure out what triggers it. Yeah it's shit getting old.
