Sounds like reflux: U can have gerd w/o h pylori. Avoid triggers like alcohol & caffeine (caffeine is in: coffee, tea, soda, chocolate.) other triggers: mint (gum, candies), citrus (ex. Orange juice, tomato sauce, etc), & in some people spicy food. If you're overweight, wt loss can help. Avoid laying down <2hrs after eating. Control stress if high stress. If these don't help talk to your doc re: other eval & tx.

LPR more resi. to Rx: Laryngopharyngeal reflux occurs when gastric contents pass the upper esophageal sphincter, causing symptoms. The pattern of reflux is different in LPR (occurs in daytime and upright position) GERD (occus at nite in supine / sleep) Ambulatory 24-h double pH-probe monitoring is the gold standard diagnost for LPR. The symptoms, manifestations, patterns, are diff. for GERD and LPR.
