Ok, I have this very unpleasant habit for long time. Only recently I feel that I need to do something about it as a friend of mine have similar problem and went to her GP (French Doctor) and this doctor give her some medicine and asked her to avoid some acid food, spicy and ect.

So I went to see a GP in Doha Clinic, hoping that he can give me same medicine and diagnose as my friend's GP did. They call me in and I sat on the chair and greet him "hello doctor" and he asked me what the is problem? I said " I burb a lot and its becoming very embarrassing, please can you give me something to stop it or at least to reduce the frequent". And you know what he said?....

He said it’s only a Habit. You can make it go away without medication. And I like Shocked!!!! So I pay 25riyals for administration and 100riyals for consultation and this is what I get???? Damn... I can be a doctor if this is what you saying to a patient.

So I get out from the Clinic with nothing, absolutely nothing. I wish I can ask my money back but that’s the rules. So recently determine to stop my Habit as my GP said. I started pay a lot attention to what I eat and I discovery that when I eat too much spicy food or acid food I got this Burb problem the minutes after I finish eating. And I said to myself, wow... I am smarter than my GP.

So guys, if you have similar problem like mine please avoid spicy food and acid food. Hope this work for you too.

Try to enjoy this gloomy day of Qatar.

Yes Oryx, sometime we find good doctor that gave us what we need as our expectation. sometime they just took us by surprise and the thing they said is shocked us. anyway, for dark circle under the eyes for quick cure use concealer 1 no above ur skin color and blush if off with your powder. its work all the time with mine.

Everybody is right and Everybody is wrong, its depend where you stand

What a good doctor....

too many people rate a doctor by the amount of pills they perscribe.

I went to a doctor once and complained about feeling tired... he gave me simple advice... get more sleep.

I once had bad dark circles etc under my eyes and plastic surgery was suggested... never did this doctor mention checking for iron. I went to Madinat Khalifa and I swear before my bum sat on the chair the lady doctor had me out of the door for blood tests... really low iron levels.

the first one just wanted my money the second cared about my health..
