Suggest Treatment For Severe Heartburn And Sleeping Disorder?

I have severe heartburn. Now I have taken Prilosec for 4 day. I plan to take 14 day. Before I have heartburn I have sleeping disorder but I still sleep 5 to 6 hour. When I have heartburn, I can not fall asleep. Can you give advice. I eat very a little bit. Can I take multivitamin and drink whey protein.

Hello
All these symptoms like heartburn is responsible for sleeping disorder .
These mesures may be useful for you.
Try raising the head of your bed about 4 inches with blocks. It also might help to avoid eating or drinking for 2 hours before you lie down. To help control heartburn you should not drink alcohol or drinks with caffeine in them or eat chocolates or pizza , burger , sweets , greasy , fried , spiced food.
