Hello,brins.tuscano, Sorry to hear that your problem has persisted over a year. I am sure you were prescribed some medications to control the acidity such as a H-2 blocker or a proton pump inhibitor. Examples are drugs such as Zantac (Ranitidine) or Nexium (Esomeprazole) which is more effective in controlling acidity. LPR (Laryngopharyngeal reflux) can cause throat problems and also cough especially at night times. Taking the medications at appropriate times is very important. Try to stay away from dairy products, alcohol, carbonated drinks and smoking ,if you are one. Try to avoid eating close to bed time. Also keep your head of the bed elevated. Talk to your digestive disease specialist about endoscopic examination if you have not had one. Good luck.
