When your esophagus is burning and your sleep has been impaired,
even a simple solution is a long mile. So I totally relate to the
need for a simple solution. If those stools don't break in the middle
of the night, if the top mattress doesn't slide, if the bed
set up provides enough incline, I say great. If not keep working
on an improvement. It took me a long time to get it fully right.
And there were I times I was seriously rundown and this
was in part a result of PPI med adverse effects.

And I'd love to own a light weight full length single plane aluminum
bed platform so
I could take my bed on the road. I don't do well sleeping level
and I'd be in trouble in the matter of a couple of days sleeping level
with the problems of reflux..

only about six inches high. I will try it and see how I get on with
it. Like I have said in my previous posts. i still not 100 pecent I

My experience was that 6 inches of incline helps with
microaspiration prevention but still permits enough
long lasting noctural reflux to cause damage to
some extent or another.
But it was enough to make my top mattress to
slide off the bottom platform mattress.

With books you will soon have a bed leg go off
in the middle of the night.

Keep in touch and tells us how it goes.
