Hi,I am Dr. Subhankar Chakraborty (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have a Dr s appointment tomorrow, and I m expected to fast beforehand. I ve got no problem with not eating for the next 8 hours, but my reflux is acting up a little bit at the moment. If I were to take tums, would that ruin my fasting and produce off-kilter results from any blood tests I take tomorrow?
