I'm struggling with acid reflux and I'm taking a lot of medications for it. But I'm really looking for ways to prevent it in the first place. Can you give me some tips or advice on how to manage it better without over-relying on medicine? I'm concerned and would appreciate some guidance.

View allI've been having this really strange issue whenever I drink water. It kind of feels like it's getting stuck in my esophagus or something, and then I can't breathe for like a minute or two. It's pretty scary and it seems like I might not be able to breathe again. Do you have any idea what might be going on?

I've been dealing with this annoying acidity every morning for the last few days. It's like I wake up and feel this urge to vomit, and sometimes there's a lot of gas too. Lately, it even feels like there's acid being released or something. Could you tell me what might be going on and what I should do?
It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of acid reflux. I recommend taking Omeprazole (brand name Prilosec) 20mg once daily before breakfast for at least 2 weeks. Additionally, you can take Simethicone (brand name Gas-X) 125mg after meals to help with gas. Make sure to avoid spicy and acidic foods, as well as eating at least 2-3 hours before bedtime to help alleviate your symptoms.
