Brief Answer: You are having symptoms of GERD Detailed Answer: Hi, Thanks for posting your query. I am Dr.Ratnakar Kini and I am pleased to assist you. I went through your post about chest pain that wakes you up in the night which gets relieved with Eno. This is a symptom of GERD. You need to take C.Nexpro L once daily before breakfast and T.Famtac once daily before dinner for 4 weeks. Certain lifestyle/dietary changes are also important. 1. Weight reduction if obese 2. Avoding alcohol, smoking, coffee citrus, tomatoes, fatty food, spicy/masala food 3. Avoid eating heavy meals. Eat smaller frequent meals 4. Go to bed at least 2-3 hours after food. I hope that answers your question. Let me know if I can assist you further. Regards, Dr.Ratnakar Kini
