I went through a crazy year or so (14 hr days at work, multiple happy hours a week, etc) where my existing reflux/ulcer issues got really bad and it wasn't until I made my health a priority that I was able to overcome it.
It turned out I had excessive H Pylori but I couldn't take the medicine for it. Luckily I was able to pay attention to my body and modify my lifestyle enough to get it under control. If I let my lifestyle get out of balance, my body will revolt so now that's a natural motivator to stay fit, watch what I consume and not take life too seriously.
I can still eat everything you've mentioned but now I'm fully aware of the impact it will have on me. In the past I just accepted feeling shitty occasionally as being normal. As I started to "hack" my diet I was able to associate certain foods with certain reactions in my body and determine what I could eat in moderation and what I needed to avoid altogether.
