I have gotten this, but, it goes away with omeprazole treatment. I used it for a couple of weeks, then it goes away for awhile.
I think that mine is from spasms in my diaphragm. My chiro does trigger point work on it, which definitely helps when the reflux feels like it's coming back.

PPI's barely help at all. Then I discovered that my reflux is entirely caused by sulfites. The CBS gene mutation (methylation stuff again) causes me to be sensitive to sulfites. And one of my most common reactions to sulfites is severe reflux/GERD. When I am very, very good about avoiding sulfites, I do not have any reflux.
Combine that with Gastroparesis, and sulfites cause he double hockey-sticks for me....it means it takes me longer than the typical 48 hours to get over a sulfite reaction...ugh.

I think my gerd was hpylori. Once I went on abx it went away. I wonder if ticks carry hpylori (they carry everything else).

Yes, GERD. Taken Nexium for years. Can't delay taking them over a couple of hours or misery.

My son (age 25) was diagnosed with GERD last year and started zantac. He was recently diagnosed with borellia and bartonella.
