A brief word on the parasymathetic nervous system (PNS). The cholinergic PNS is stimulated (by the hypothalamus) by way of acetycholines, The cholinergic PNS slows HR, increases salivation, relaxes sphincters (GERD?), and stimulates urination. Antihistamines have an ANTIcholinergic effect and as such would therefore appear on-the-face-of-it to be good for VMAFrs (and conversely bad for AMAFrs). The popular GERD med cimetidine is an antihistamine and, given its anticholinergic properties, might well suit VMAFrs with GERD. Having had BAD trapped wind problems and heartburn this last few weeks, I'm accordingly gonna give cimetidine a try.
