Been getting acid reflux (felt in neck) daily. indicative of something detrimental? could tea and/or yogurt cause this? 10mg pepcid (famotidine) ac stops it.

Acid reflux per se: is not detrimental and is treatable..HOWEVER an evaluation by a Gastroenterologist is probably a good idea since some esophageal; disorders need special attention (eg "Barrett's esophogas") Hope this helps! Dr Z
