Lately i feel bloated, and upper abdominal discomfort and hunger pains even after eating. I feel miserable my dr told me i might be suffering from acid reflux and gave me prilosec which im taking 1 tablet at night. But it doesn't seem to ease my symptoms. Anyone suffering the smar thing?

  Hi and welcome to the GERD forum.

  It is possible you over produce histamines and that a H2 blocker will help ease your symptoms.....I too had similar symptoms as you, and PPI's did not help with my symptoms....but once y Dr changed me to the H2 blocker which blocks histamines I began to feel better....diet is important too. There are some foods that can cause you to over produce Histamines.

Worth looking into.....good luck.
