Chinese Medicine - Day 11

The Chinese herbs along with the accupuncture seem to be working, but here's what I found. It isn't immediate and if I eat cheese, red meat and green chiles all day long, nothing will prevent me from having heartburn that night at least a little bit, but the Chinese herbs and accupuncture certainly do help.  Today my heartburn hasn't been very bad(last night wasn't terrible), but I bet it would be totally gone had I stuck to the diet and continued taking the herbs. Only reason I didn't is that a close family member is in the hospital and so I've been at the hospital enough to drive me crazy.
