Hi Angie. I understand the frustration. I have GERD and initially took Zantac 12 hour relief pills. They stopped helping me though so I'm now on Nexium. I don't think they are a problem to take long term. I'll be on the nexium for the rest of my life.
I can't take birth control at all (we're looking forward to either of us being old enough to be snipped)as it really gives me terrible pains and D.
As far as the discomfort after eating goes I've recently discovered that I'm intolerant to some natural food chemicals (not sure which ones yet) and they're probably causing the majority of my problems.
Don't know if any of this is any help but big hugs. I understand how you are feeling (with the weight gain too! I'm a skinny ). Hope you get some of it sorted out soon. Def give the zantac a try (I don't think GERD makes you cramp or bloat). Good luck.
