You likely have GERD (GastroEsophageal Reflux Disease). There are some tips to alleviate the symptoms: avoid the foods which exacerbate symptoms, avoid supine position within 2 hours after meals, raise the head of your bed with at least 2 bricks, taking PPI (over the counter) such as Prilosec OTC, Omeprazole, Prevacid or Nexium (see their label for instruction) for 2 months.
