A doctor has provided 1 answer

Gastroenterologist: She should be evaluated by a gastroenterologist and if she's already seen one, have her get a second opinion from a different gastroenterologist. Instead of acid reflux she may have an inflamed esophagus. Has she had a gastroscopy? If not, I highly recommend one. My sense is she also has irritable bowel syndrome with constipation,mainly. The gastroenterologist will also address this.
