Brief Answer:
What medications are you on at this time for the acid reflux?

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this pain. The symptoms are very suggestive of acid reflux. I will like to know what medication you are on at this time to see how effective it is. I will go first with treating fully for this and only look beyond if it fails since the symptoms are very much suggestive of this. Let me know what your thoughts are and whether this sounds a good plan to you.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thanks for using our services and do feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.

I'm taking Zantac for the acid reflex. Is there a better one over the counter?

Thanks
