    What lifestyle changes have you made since being diagnosed with inflammation? Have you changed your diet? Are you taking any medication to help? Acid reflux can get better and worse depending on hormone changes, certain foods or drinks and stress. If you are menopause age it is supposed to be really bad. Weight can sometimes be an issue, if you are overweight you are more likely to suffer with heartburn and reflux. Eating small meals, chewing a lot and avoiding certain trigger foods and drinks are all factors which help. They say eat 4-5 small meals a day rather than 3 regular sized ones. You should never feel hungry and never feel full that way.p
