Acid Reflux/GERD - Headaches? - Acid Reflux / GERD Message Board

Hello,

Got the Endoscope done and the GI said it was slight Hiatal Hernia.
Have all those symptoms like pain in the chest area, lump in the throat feeling...etc.
Got all the heart related tests as well and they came up normal.

Recently I have been getting headaches, mostly on the scalp area on the top of the head.
I am on Nexium 40mg once a day and it seems to be working as it seems to be relieving my symptoms.
However I am not sure if the headaches are due to GERD/Acid reflux or the
side effect of Nexium.
Any thoughts...?

Thanks..

most probably the nexium - all the ppi's gave me migraines.

Headache is normal with Acid reflux/Gerd.. I have them too even when i dont take ppi meds but they are light so i try to ignore them.
