How Can Constant Acid Reflux Be Treated?

Constant acid reflux. I take 40 mg omeprazole in the morning, a zanteck 150 at night. , and Roland s in between. I don t have an appetite as I feel like I am full of air. Then on the other end I either pass gas or go a little #2 every little bit or if I strain myself. I take probiotics and that has helped but still have these flare ups. Please advise.
