laurietrib, I take the Zegerid for reflux, look it up or call your pharmacist, it does seem to help(for now), but nothing lasts me all day, I am on so many meds. I think is all contibuting to my problem. I am like everyone else looking for what will work best, I know about the chest pain & it is scary. I am always taking rolaids comlete in the evening if I eat anything that aggravates me. I am sick of it all. all I know is two doctors have told me zegerid is pretty good stuff. I had never heard of it until recently to. That is when the doc. put me on it, back in may. It is worth looking into. I always feel lately like sharp pain right between where my ribs meet in the center of the chest, drives me crazy, do you get that?
Pidypad, I feel so sorry for you, I get the rapid heartrate it scares me like nothing else, doc sent me into ER from office last month because it was so out of control, but cardiac work up came back OK. My heart goes out to you, I know it is the most awful feeling. I can't help getting scared when my heartrate goes bonkers, I wonder if anyone else with gerd or reflux gets that rapid heart rate thing going? I also have alot of pain right know so that does not help. I wish you the best. Sammy
