If you have a lot of anxiety, it would really behoove you to get *that* taken care of, though whatever means possible - therapy, medication, meditation/yoga/other self-help means, etc, whatever it takes. Trust me on this one (personal experience): your IBS will not stabilize if you have ongoing anxiety problems or excess stress. It's a seriously major trigger.

As for the reflux, I would say that's actually heartburn, not reflux, but that's just me. (I'm no doctor, LOL.) To me, "reflux" is acid backing up into the esophagus, whereas heartburn is more of a pressure/burning feeling without the acid backup. But the pills he gave you are probably fine for both, since they are similar.
