Guest guest Posted January 17, 2004 Report Share Posted January 17, 2004 > > So, are you saying that acid reflux is different than GERD? GERD Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease Often called " reflux, " " reflux esophagitis, " or sometimes inaccurately referred to as " hiatus hernia. " Gastroesophageal reflux is the term used to describe a backflow of acid from the stomach into the swallowing tube or esophagus. http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/ceda/database?method=reportRows & tbl=8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
