Heart burn: Heart burn & indigestion are the same . the bottom line is you are still having symptoms . It is either , you are not taking the meds correctly or not taking enough dose or maybe not fallowing anti reflux measures . having symptoms on a daily basis in not normal . See a physician for evaluation . you may need a look into your stomach & your Esophagus .;EGD. Take care

Possibly okay!: You may be responding to Esomeprazole, but the reflux does not completely heal for three weeks. Also avoid acid drinks such as cola, alcohol, acid foods, and stop nicotine products. See your doctor if problems continue or if you are having more indigestion with exertion or exercise.
