    Also avoid gassy drinks and vegetables such as broccoli, cabbage and Brussels Sprouts. Don't eat late at night, eat slowly and chew your food well.

      Have you asked your doctor for a stronger antacid such as PPI? There are lots of different ones you can try. Sometimes you have to try several to find one that works.
