Gerd: These are common symptoms of GERD, you need to be on chronic therapy. First of all make sure you sleep well propped up with at least three pillows. Stay away from all foods that irritate your stomach and try aPPI Such as Nexium 20 mg at night. If you do not get good relief then increase the Nexium to twice a day. Good luck
