hidden heartburn maybe! Try heartburn remedies! Cut down on the soda, try fizzy water instead or plain water! Cut down on the tea, coffee, spicy foods etc..
cut down on sauces and pickles and the like…
How old are you, sweetie?? If you are above the age of 18, you have a right to see a doctor on your own. The group home should not be making medical decisions on your behalf unless you have already seen a doctor for the same condition and are not taking the doctor's advice. Do you have a health care advocate? If not, you should see about getting one who can help you communicate your concerns to a doctor or other health care professional. Good luck with this. And, yes, it may be the soda, but if you don't see a doctor, you'll never know.
