Suggest Treatment For Acid Reflux With Sharp Burps
Have acid reflux taking otc med but last night I experienced sharp little electric like pains, drank water and got alot of burps out. Was diagnosed a number of years ago but could not afford the last script over 300.00 and no insurance. Had heart testes all of that just two years ago any suggestions? Pain has eventually gone away, but never had that before.
