And acquaintence of mine claims that someone he knew died of complications related to Acid Reflux disease? It seems absurd to me. How is this possible? Even if it is, wouldn't the symptoms before actual death be so severe that the person would seek out an emergency room, before the disease became lethal???

He probably had esophogeal errosions aka his esophogas was eroded from all the acid that had backed up that he died from that. I can tell you from experience that you may not know that you have it. My dad never complained of heartburn or other problems but wound up that he was having some bleeding from some place causing his blood levels to be dangerously low. After lots of checking they found out that his esophagus was eroded and he never new it. I can full well believe that your friend knew someone that died from these kind of complications.

My friend's son died of it at 4 months of age. He had many heart surgeries before, and was finally home. His mother fed him and put him down when the reflux kicked in and smothered him. They took him right to the ER but since his little body was so worn out from all his surgeries, they couldn't bring him back.

I know that my aunt dies of severe acid reflux.
the acid reflux caused the acidity of the stomach to travel up & get inhaled to the lung, over years this caused lung iritations & finally causing lung cancer ( she did not smoke 1 single cigarette in her life) & she died in 8 months.

If your esophagus gets ruptured or torn, you could actually bleed to death from it.
