Suggest Treatment For Acid Reflux

hi im 15 and female and everyday i get acid reflux always. i had an endoscopy done and they found minute ulcers which im sure have gotten 10x worse by now. i was on protonix which made me so sick and did not help. they had me on miralax thinking it was my digestive system and it didnt help. i went 2.5weeks without any acidic foods and it didn t help at all. i found that acid reducers from the pharmacy work for an hour max and thats it. i think stress contributes because when i take the meds it helps until i become stressed. im not sure what i have at all.
