Lifestyle Changes That Help Small changes in your daily routine can prevent heartburn: Sleep Smart: Raise the head of your bed 6-8 inches using bed risers or blocks Use a wedge pillow designed for acid reflux Sleep on your left side (this keeps acid down better than your right side or back) Dress Comfortably: Wear loose pants, skirts, and dresses Avoid tight belts and waistbands Choose stretchy fabrics that dont squeeze your belly Lose Weight if Needed: The good news is that semaglutide helps you lose weight, and weight loss often improves acid reflux over time

What an assessment involves A typical consultation includes: A focused history of your GLP-1 treatment (medication, dose, duration, rate of weight loss) Review of any symptoms, including subtle or partial ones Examination Review of any existing imaging Discussion of your individual risk profile, with the RELAPSTONE tool where appropriate A clear summary of the options, with no pressure to proceed If imaging is needed, this can be arranged
