Anti gas: Try some over the counter anti gas preparations. If no relief, see your doctor. It could be that you have gastroparesis associated with the gerd, a condition where the stomach doesn't empty right, but this is fairly unlikely.

GERD: Once your GI specialist knows that you don't have a more serious condition like barrett's esophagus, the solutions vary. Ppis (prilosec, nexium, dexilant, (dexlansoprazole) etc) not eating late and lying down, elevating the head of your bed and avoiding foods that can aggravate the condition (coffee, tomatoes , etc). Gerd can be involved in asthma, sinusitis, nasal congestion and post-nasal drainage...
