So... there I was sitting in the hotel room... feeling like a bloated whale (as I often do while on travel) having just left the Wood Ranch restaurant in Ventura. At approximately 10pm, a small "vurp" reminds me of how much I enjoyed the BBQ tri-tip. No harm there...

At 12:30 am I awoke with my entire head on fire... the vurp, apparently unhappy with the reception earlier decided to return, this time right up my sinuses and into my nostril cavities.

I can't recall waking up so quickly in a long long time... at 40+ years old, I've justs discovered an entirely new flavor of pain. These are exciting times!

I spent the rest of the next day with a runny nose and this lingering smell of acid, barbecue sauce and beef. I'm not a doctor but I'm guessing that applying stomach acid to the delicate mucous membranes of one's nasal passages is probably not something you want to make a habit.

About three times I've had acid reflux where I literally wake up from a deep sleep gasping for air trying to breath after a big acid squirt into my air passage (I sleep face down on a thin pillow). It's like trying to breath through a cocktail straw at first. It takes a few seconds to realize that I'm not in the process of suffocating to death, after which It just becomes an annoyance. Scares the wife good too.
