Treat symptoms: Unless conta-indicated, start OTC acid blocker (ranitidine or Prilosec) antacids and anti-gas (simethicone). Avoid spicy and fatty foods, and alcohol, eat 4-5 small meals daily including roughage. Drink lots of water (8 x 8 oz) daily. Regarding the anxiety, consider seeing a talk therapist (psychologist, medical social worker) or psychiatrist if the anxiety is preventing you from normal activities
