Have you seen your dr.? It's a good idea so they can see how much damage there is.

I tried OTC items that didn't work and a few prescriptions. Nexium and diet helped immediately! Many of the triggers are the same for IBS and should be avoided. The chemicals loosen the sphincter to the stomach and let acid right into the esophagus.

Avoid: chocolate, alcohol, citrus (I can't do OJ at all!), tomato, etc. Some people can tolerate different levels. The first three are no-nos for me. Also, eat small meals.

Good luck! I hope you feel better soon.
