Also, a year ago, I was taking one 150 mg ranitidine, but last month,the gerd became constant and I now take ranitidine twice a day. Any thoughts on what could be causing the pain on my right side?

Hello,
It may be due to severe gastritis arising out of acid reflux.
As of now, you can take antacids like omeprazole or pantoprazole for symptomatic relief.
If symptoms persist better to consult a gastroenterologist and plan for an endoscopy.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
