Brief Answer:
Get yourself clinically examined by Neurophysician

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for writing your query.

After reading your post,It may be due to acid reflux hence I would like to advise that you can take an antacid like Omeprazole 40mg once a day before meals along with Domperidone 30mg and a preparation of Methylcobalamin along with the medicines you are taking.
This may provide some relief in your symptoms.
If the symptoms persists, get yourself clinically examined and investigated by a Neurophysician to rule out nerve damage.


I hope this is helpful to you.
If you have any further query, I will be happy to help.
Regards. Thanks.
