Do you know if you have a hiatus hernia or not? This can be irrated by bowel problems - more gas in the stomach as the bowels slow down and causes pressure on hiatus hernia which results in increased reflux. Interestingly enough PPI's can cause IBS over long term. I have great problems in tolerating PPI's - don't like the ranitidine I'm on either - they just mess with your natural digestive systems!
