I had the gerd condition for awhile already. I am taking medication for it though it only helps a little with the condition. I think I get more gerd when I drink some water though. I don't know what to do about it. Does anyone know how much water I should drink when having this condition. Any advice would be nice. Thanks.

I was always told to continue drinking water, whatever your normal amount is per day. If your medication isn't working, talk to your doctor. There is a lot of medication out there, you may want to try something different.

I have to drink a LOT of water due to other GI & Bladder issues.

What I find works best for me is very warm water. If I need to get a change up on taste I will add a few drops of juice to it.

My suggestion to you is to drink alkaline water above 8.0. I have LPR and EOE and it;'s all I drink. This helps neutralize acid in the esophagus. And you don't need to buy alkaline water in stores/supermarkets. Amazon and other places sell pitchers in which you can make your own.
