I think she's talking about hydro chloric acid, the stuff that one of your organs (pancreas?) makes and sends to your stomach to digest food.

Yes, HCL, hydrochloric acid. Many of us are too alkaline and have heartburn from the alkalinity, but typically you only hear about people who have heartburn from too much acid.

six,
Count me among that list of too alkaline. Know any good ideas for what to do about that? I'm hoping this will get fixed with lyme treatment, but who knows...

By the way, for the record, my wife is the GREATEST cook in the world. She's amazing.
I was just joking around, taking the opportunity to pay homage to my favorite comedian and give this place some comic relief for a change. We're all so serious all the time, we need to laugh regularly if we want to get better. I sure miss ol' Rodney Dangerfield.
Well I'm alright now, but the other day I was in rough shape, you know?
I asked my LLMD, Dr. Vinny Boom-Batz "what do I do about this brain fog? I can't remember ANYTHING any more."
He said, "look at the bright side. This spring, you'll be able to hide your own Easter eggs."
Hey, good crowd, good crowd, alright. You gotta great laugh, baby, I'll tell ya that. We'll work it out, OK?

For overall alkalinity, I don't know. I take HCL for digestion.

Aaww, you don't know the half of it; you kiddin'?
The other night, my wife gave me some chocolate mousse for dessert. I ended up getting an antler stuck in my throat.
Last week I bought her a pressure cooker. Now I eat off of the ceiling.
My wife's cooking is putting color in my face. ---Purple.
I'll tell ya, my wife, she can dish it out, but she can't cook it.
Then, there's my daughter, she's no bargain, either. And she's not too smart, you know. I asked her to make me some french toast, she got her tongue stuck in the toaster!
My doctor, Dr. Vinny Boom-Batz told me my stomach was too alkaline. I said "a visit with my mother-in-law oughta clear that up in a hurry."
The doc told me to stick out my tongue and say "aaaah." so I did. Then he said "now go in front of the window and do that." I said "why, is the light better over there?" He said, "no, I just wanna get back at my neighbor."
Alright, good crowd, you've been great.

This morning I called him up and said "hey Doc, I get up in the morning, I feel lousy, when I look in the mirror, I want to throw up, what's wrong with me?"
He said "I don't know, but your eyesight is PERFECT!"
What a doctor I've got, you kiddin'? One time I called him up and I said "hey Doc, I just swallowed a bottle of sleeping pills, what do I do?"
He said "have a few drinks and get some rest!"
Then I called the suicide hotline, they tried to talk me INTO it!
Then my wife, she's a beauty, she signed me up for a bridge club. I jump off next Tuesday.
I'll tell you what, this Lyme disease drives me nuts. It's causing low adrenal function, low thyroid, low testosterone. Oh, the low testosterone, ain' that a beauty? I'm gettin' to the point where I'm envious of a STIFF WIND!
My wife had a mirror put in over our bed. She says she likes to watch herself LAUGH!
I'll tell ya, I want two girls at once. In case I fall asleep they've got each other to talk to.
I tell ya, no respect, that's the story of my life I don't get any respect from anybody!
My father never loved me, he carried around a picture of the kid that came with the wallet.
I can't get any respect no matter where I go. Yesterday I took a walk on the beach. I held a seashell up to my ear, it told me to GET OFF THE BEACH!
I went to McDonald's they told me I didn't DESERVE a break!
(For you young kids out there, McDonalds' slogan used to be "you deserve a break today.")
Alright, you've been great, OK? I'm out.
