GER: Likely your family has gastro esophageal reflux from a dysfunction of the muscle at the bottom of your esophagus that allows the contents of your stomach to wash back up into your esophagus. Please see your provider to see if your situation warrants an endoscopic look into your stomach to confirm the diagnisis.
