I took all types of blood pressure meds. The ace inhibitors burned my stomach and esophagus. calcium channel blockers caused heartburn that burned my esophagus. Been on Atenolol since 2019 and have to take proton pump inhibitors so I dont burn esophagus. Now proton pump inhibitors are starting not to work even on high dose. my esophagus is starting to burn. if I stop the blood pressure meds it goes away. but I can't stop these beta blockers because my blood pressure will shoot up. I think I'm. allergic to fillers in these pills. I had many of scopes and tests done to no avail. they can't figure out what's wrong and why I'm getting severe reflux. I know it's from the blood pressure pills but I have to take them
