I've dealing with GERD and LPR for a few months now and today is the day I decided to finally see and ENT doctor who diagnosed me with acid reflux and recommended me to take omperazole 40mg for 2 weeks. My main symptoms are sour taste in mouth, burning sensation in throat, throat clearing, coughing, sensation of food feeling stuck that happens instantly when I eat something which causes me to panic and I feel like rushing to the ER, since my health anxiety makes me think that an actual food could be stuck inside my throat, even though I'm breathing, eating and talking just fine. My other symptoms are my voice is hoarse all the time, gag reflux feels sensation and difficulty swallowing. Does anyone else get these symptoms and know what to do on how to deal with them? I feel like this 24/7 and it stresses me out so much.

    Hi

    i have been suffering with chronic sour taste in mouth for many years. i have had all the tests and unfortunately omeprazole doesnt work. The only relief i get after eating is chewing on gum. If you know of any treatment would you please let me know.
