GERD or ulcer: Consider seeing your doctor. Things to consider include acid reflux, a hernia, esophageal sphincter spasm, gallbladder disease or even angina. There are others, but they are less common. Taking a nighttime antacid might be your first step, if you have tried this, then make that appointment.
