I just thought I would pop in my two cents. I have a hital hernia that was diagnosed about 5 years ago and I was the same way it would wake me up at night. I started off taking Prevacid and that worked for a while but then it started up again. I then started taking Nexium and it really does work. It does take awhile but it will help. Something else you might try is lifting the head of your bed. I know they tell you to do that and you don't think it will work but trust me it does. Laying down flat causes more acid to build up and if you are elevated there won't be as much to build. Try that and see if it helps.

It does get better and I am now taking Achiphex as my insurance doesn't cover alot for the Nexium and I can't afford to buy it anymore.

I hope this helps and you do start feeling better.
