| Champ, complaining of sore throat, diagnosed with acid reflux |
| 2014-12-07 |
| [Rooters] President Champ, who had medical tests on Saturday after complaining of a sore throat, is suffering from acid reflux, the president's physician said. "The president's symptoms are consistent with soft tissue inflammation related to acid reflux and will be treated accordingly," Champ's doctor, Captain Ronny Jackson, said in a statement. Acid reflux is a condition in which the stomach contents flow back up from the stomach into the esophagus, causing such symptoms as heartburn and sore throat. Champ, 53, went to Walter Reed military hospital for a fiber optic exam of his throat and since swelling was detected, doctors decided to perform a CT scan as well, Jackson said. |

| #12 I don't know about the military personal at Walter Reed military hospital, but I doubt I could trust my own hands that close to Mr. Obama's throat. |

| #7 No official diagnosis, but when I woke up in the middle of the night with my throat on fire, I figgered it was acid reflux. Water and Rolaids wouldn't put out the fire. It had to burn itself out. But I certainly wouldn't confuse it with a sore throat. |
