Suggest Treatment For Bloating, Flatulence And Nausea

I have bloating, flatulence, nausea, I feel tired, burning throat. I take Protonix (generic) which doesn t seem to be helping. Is there anything stronger, I can take? I have been Diagnosed with Acid Reflux, but I feel uncomfortable. I have take endoscopic and colonoscopy and they did not find any sign of cancer. Is there any other medication I can take besides protonix?
