Probably.: Hi, Sure it may likely be gerd given the symptoms your are discribing. There're several OTC medications that works for acid reflux, however you should see a gastroenterologist to check for other underlining conditions such as bacteria over growth, ulcer, H. Pylorie infection, and celiac disease.
