Thanks for the suggestions/ advice. I will go back to the doc if things get out of hand, I'm due to ring them in a couple of weeks with a progress report, so that should give the victoza time to establish itself.
You're quite right AndBreathe, weight is definitely a factor in controlling the symptoms of reflux. I do find it difficult to keep my weight down, particularly because I have a pituitary tumor, which plays havoc with my metabolism. So far it has depleted me of thyroxine and growth hormone and, according to my doc, is largely responsible for my diabetes. I'm fighting a bit of an uphill battle, but I do try.
Thanks again,
Ness
