Conditions / Acid reflux
Find what’s behind your reflux and heartburn.
Reflux triggers are notoriously individual — coffee, late meals, portion size, alcohol, stress and lying down too soon can all play a part. Because the same meal can be fine one day and not the next, patterns only emerge once you’ve logged enough of them.
How mySymptoms helps
- Correlate heartburn and reflux with specific foods, drinks and meal timing.
- See how late eating, portion size and alcohol affect your evenings.
- Factor in stress and sleep, which often make reflux worse.
- Take a clear picture to your GP if symptoms are frequent or persistent.
Logging the *time* of meals and symptoms matters as much as the food itself for reflux — the gap between eating and lying down is often the real culprit.
Questions people ask
- When should I see a doctor about reflux?
- Frequent, persistent or worsening reflux should always be checked by a clinician. mySymptoms helps you describe the pattern, not diagnose the cause.
- Does it track caffeine and alcohol?
- Yes — both are common reflux factors and easy to log alongside meals.
