Manuka honey tastes yukky, so it MUST be beneficial.
My late husband suffered from reflux for some years and it was discovered that he had Achalasia

It has taken nearly three years to actually get a diagnosis.

Perhaps it was in the future they're hoping to be able to diagnose from a breath test then Wrinkly. I read it somewhere, just can't think where. Either way, hope you're on the mend.

Here you are Wrinkly, there are various sites you can google if this link doesn't work. I'm not always very good at copying links!H. pylori infection Tests and diagnosis - Mayo Clinic

Read about how stomach ulcers are diagnosed, including tests for H. pylori bacteria ...

oh pooh. I can't post the link I wanted to show you.
It said all about the antibacteria and antimicrobe properties of the honey. Never mind. . . .

Re: Acid Reflux.
Landed in hospital for a couple of weeks, the pain was knocking me off my feet. My GP said I had a wee Virus...HAH. I had a massive infection from my gall bladder. I had 20 bottles of antibiotics over 5 days through a drip. It seems I also may have gall stones and am waiting on an appointment for a endoscopy, the thought of that is scaring me half to death. I take panic attacks when I can't breath properly. Sheeze what a life....|
