Dose?: Try the omez twice a day for a few weeks - reduce it to once a day after you've been better for a while. Your symptoms certainly sound like acid reflux. Don't eat or drink anything for 3 hours before going to bed (even water). Elevate the head of your bed on a couple of bricks (not with pillows). Avoid nicotine, caffeine, and alcohol (if not forever, at least till you're better). Good luck.

Peptic ulcer: Your symptoms could be from peptic ulcer disease. I think you should be tested for h. Pylori infection ( a bug that can lead to peptic ulcer disease) . If that's the case you will need antibiotics for about 2 weeks. Discuss with your provider.
