question: Hello doctor, My condition is GERD and LPR and I am so stressed out with this I cannot even sleep. I take Esomeprazole 40mg per day, but still no improvement. I sleep, but sometimes acid reaches my throat when I wake up. I am on this for one month and I feel every time. I take pills that they remain stuck in my throat like down the esophagus and I must drink a lot to push it down. I am on diet with no spicy, no coffee, no alcohol and I have a list with acidic foods. I am scared about my esophagus to not be very damaged. This will destroy me for real. I am only 24. Should I double the dose? Should I change medicines? Now with the Coronavirus, I cannot find any doctor. I do not feel heartburn, but I always hear my stomach making a weird sound when lying in bed. Please help.
