    Have you tried different types of ppi tablets? If you are not on it already ask to swap to esomeprazole it is the best. I don't know what your diet is like, but certain foods can make symptoms worse. Avoid or cut down on fatty foods, sugar, caffeine, carbonated drinks and alcohol. Eat slowly and chew a lot, also chew sugar free gum. Chewing helps neutralise acid. Rennies can help as well.

    If the problem is becoming unbearable, get an endoscopy.
