Ecstasy is a drug that affects the CNS, by increasing your heart rate, and BP. Naturally enough, it affects the brain that as you know controls glands that secretes hormones and other juices. Although the symptom you are referring to seems unknown, it is not unnatural. Ecstasy consumption can mess with your digestive system, by making it produce too much acid.... yup its possible.

Is hydrochloric acid in your immune system?

hydrochloric acid a strong corrosive acid which is infact present in the stomach of mammals.This contributes to a non-specific immune response but differs with the rest of the defence system because it does not depend on presence of antigens/foreign particles to get to work. In simple words,HCl kills toxic bacteria in food IF it is present.It is highly likely that there is a trace of bacteria now matter how much careful we are but before this can harm us,it is destroyed by the strong acid.HCl or the stomach lining that produces it has no way of knowing how much bacteria is present in the food we eat.It simply produces it 'just' incase. Finally,HCl,despite being very corrosive is not able to dissolve the stomach due to thick stomach lining whose cells are continuously replaced.However,some people have 'acidity',which means there is more acid and less food,so stomach lining feels irritated. hydrochloric acid a strong corrosive acid which is infact present in the stomach of mammals.This contributes to a non-specific immune response but differs with the rest of the defence system because it does not depend on presence of antigens/foreign particles to get to work.

What does it mean when you throw up blood and stomach acid?

Part of vomit will always be stomach acid because it's naturally produced in the stomach as a part of digestion. However, throwing up blood can be a sign of damage to the trachea/esophagus/stomach/liver/duodenum, ruptured stomach ulcers, liver disorders.. the list is long. Basically if you throw up blood and your throat isn't hurting (like it's cut) get to hospital (quickly if any significant amount - ruptured ulcers can kill quickly). In any case - seek medical advice immediately.


With acid reflux is it better to lay down on your left or right side to help prevent acid reflux?

With acid reflux, it's best not to lie down at all right after eating. When you do lie down, I find it best to be propped up, no matter which side. Acid reflux is caused when a muscle between the stomach and esophagus lets acid leak out of the stomach. During the day, gravity usually keeps the acid where it belongs, but when laying down, that may not be the case. Propping up lets gravity still work.
