Challenging & Controlling Acid Reflux

I don't know if you all know, but I suffer from Acid Reflux. Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a condition in which the stomach contents (food or liquid) leak backwards from the stomach into the esophagus (the tube from the mouth to the stomach). This action can irritate the esophagus, causing heartburn and other symptoms. Acid Reflux is no joke, over the weekend it triggered me after eating one too many slices of pizza late in the night. 

This is how you can trigger acid reflux; eating late at night, poor diet and exercise, lying down after eating, not enough proper sleep as well as accumulating too many carbonated drinks. I started to get heartburn and indigestion and I thought it stemmed from one night of eating very late at night. I thought that was the case but my pains start to frequently occur as heart and chest burns, then I began to feel sharp pains in my stomach. The pain I was feeling were like thunderbolts shooting from my stomach up towards my chest; a feeling not so pleasant. Then I began to cake medical measurements in to stopping my acid reflux so I did and I haven't had any pains up until now. 

It's tough having acid reflux, because it can damage your internal organs drastically. For those who struggle with acid reflux like I do, I'm going to share with you tips and habits I do to slow down the acid reflux from occurring, I mean you can't get rid of it unless you take surgery measures, but you can control it and help push it out your system without surgery by doing the following: 

Let's Get Real: Has Anyone Ever Been Under The Knife (Cosmetic Surgery)

Has anyone ever thought to get cosmetic surgery? Or do you know anyone who has went under the knife? 

I'd love to hear your stories or someone you know who has been under the knife. I'm all for people and their decision to get cosmetic surgery and I don't discriminate or judge in any form. Cosmetic surgery has been an option of mine for some time now. I would love to take out the fat in my face to have a more define cheekbone area as well as getting liposuction. 

I'm not 100% sure this is something I want to go forth with, but it's just an option that's up in the air for right now. I don't know when i'll actually consider doing it, maybe after I read stories from people whom I know have got it. 

I'm not going to base my decision on high profiled cosmetic surgery; only because i'm not a celebrity and I don't have that amount of money to pay for a procedure. Yet alone, pay for the best surgeon in the country. 

If you or know anyone who's been under cosmetic surgery, please share your or that person's story with me.

Public Bathroom Cleanliness

Okay, usually some public bathrooms aren't this clean. When you do enter a public bathroom how cautious are you? Do you know what you're about to enter? Do you know one single touch off the wall can get you sick faster than walking in a blizzard without a coat? Well, I always in someway try not to touch anything in public restrooms. I'm always using tissue to either close the doors turn the knobs on the faucet and use my foot to flush the toilet.

I want to know what do you guys do though when you're finished using the bathroom, wash your hands and then dry them, only leaving you to wonder how will you open that door?! I mean this is why I always carry around anti-bacterial hand wipes or hand sanitizer. I just want to know what do you do to leave the bathroom? Is it always a strategy for you?
