What you are describing is LPR/respiratory reflux/silent reflux. It’s likely caused by diet, stress and posture that causes issues with the lower esophageal sphincter and unlikely to be bacterial overgrowth.

That's a fairly low quality med-spam internet article, like

> so take the quiz below. If your total score is 15 or more, there’s a 90+% chance you have LPR reflux.

with no quiz. It doesn't mention anything about posture, stress, or the lower esophageal. It seems like a new catch all stomach disease, much like the old catch all stomach disease.

And despite this, you assert that it must be LPR?

I didn't find the quiz there but it looks like there's a standard test for LPR where if your score is 13-15 or above means you probably have it.

I've done it and being "reasonable" and not exaggerating on my answers, my score is 20, so it could be it. Symptoms are there and there's no heartburn or typical reflux.

In any case it looks like I'm doomed.

Thank you.

I'll read more about LPR.
