Talk to your treating doc, you will need to be evaluated in order to decide if your symptoms are solely due to worsening reflux at night versus other condition or a mixture. Specifically if you had tests, such as an upper endoscopy following up with same group will be best.

I have a hiatal hernia and esophagitis. My acid reflux always stays in my throat when I get a flare up. I take esomeprazole and antacids but I dont think the antacids are working anymore. How do I get rid of this feeling. Makes me severely nauseous?

Severe nausea last 3 days on and off. I have a hiatal hernia, esophagitis and IBS. I feel fine until I eat or drink something. Its just constant nausea in my throat. I dont know how to get rid of it. Would it be caused by any of those conditions?
