i have been diagnosed years ago with gerd, and then a few years back, hiatel hernia, now i have a peptic ulcer.... my heartburn comes and goes, but i dont' usually have burning in the chest, usually in the upper area, and throat and mouth... i told that to my doctor years ago, and i guess its normal...so can anyone tell me about all this? i know what the ulcer is, the ONLY thing that helps me get rid of heartburn is nexium? when i was diagnosed with it a week ago, the dr said i can have a mixture of meds...proton pump inhibitor, and antacids.... does anyone out there have any info about this and what meds work best? prilosec, or prevacid doesn't work for me.... they even told me to take double the strength meds if over the counter..... any advice?
