-New Dr has given hubbie EXTRA acid to take each night meal as a

trial. Indigestion is caused by lack of acid ... not too much. Hubbie

is testing high for b12 and Dr is suspicious that he is not digesting

his food and B12 may not be getting into cells correctly.

T3 meds start soon. May need B12 injections to boost cell uptake of B12.

seems to think that hypothyroidism and lack of B-12 go hand in

hand-and if you are having problems with GERD or acid reflux disease,

you need MORE stomach acid, not less. You can increase that with

vitamin B-12 and/or Betaine. Also, lack of stomach acid makes it much

more difficult for your body to derive any nutrients from your food or

supplements. Hope this helps -
