Refluxed...grey goo? Wth.

So occasionally while sleeping I’ll have acid reflux. If I’m lucky, I’ll catch myself and reflux over the side of the bed. I know that sounds gross, but far better to have a mess to clean up than to have it go into my lungs.

Last night though when I got a towel to clean up, I saw I had vomited up grey goo. Gross. Can’t say I’ve ever seen that before and the internet, while providing cases, had few answers.

What was the last thing you ate beforehand? Oreos and milk?

Cereal, milk and a melatonin pill. Still…my reflux has always been clear stomach acid regardless of what I’ve eaten. Weird.

Froot Loops? (all those colours blend to grey).

Wow. It was fruit loops. Do you have a camera in my kitchen? That was amazing.

Apparently, Mangetout really knows food in and out (sorry). Some nice Sherlocking there!

That’s the color the milk becomes with Froot Loops! QED.

Better that than nanoparticles.

Raise the head of your bed at least 5 inches… Couple of books under the bed legs,blankets under the head end of mattress, pad under your shoulders… I have a hospital bed and I’ve not had an episode since I raised the head that much… Sleep on my side too.
