Well, do you feel better lying down during the day? Is it the supine position, or the time of day?
For me, morning was also my best time of day. But in my case, and the 24-hr pH test substantiated this, it was probably because the acid was less at night, and the time since my last PPI dose.
My acid readings dropped steeply after every meal, and only got consistently up into a "normal" range by about 10 p.m. In the morning, it was a very healthy 8.0.
But of course, then I had to take a PPI and eat something, and start the roller coaster all over again. :(
