OTC meds: I would try some Prilosec (omeprazole) OTC twice a day for 1 week. I would also, in the meantime, set up an appointment with your Family Doctor, especially if you have never had reflux before. If you have risk factors for heart disease and the burning pain increases with exertion (not just eating) or if you have shortness of breath associated then you need to be seen today.
