ginger crushed , boil it with water add crushed dry cloves, bit honey. It neutralizes acid reflux. I have tried it. dont depend too much on medicines .eat healthy. Normally westerners dont believe in ayurvedic medicine but this will help. Try atleast for a month
I had the same thing. Took azithromycin. Got LPRD.
Wonder if instead of causing the LPRD, it kills the gut flora, and that leads to LPRD.

Ive had the exact same thing. After taking azithromycin i have serious acid reflux and i didnt have it before.
Im curious if it went away???
I am the GERD king. Out of everything I've tried Prevacid 30 mg is the best yet
Go back to your doc and ask to be tested for H. pylori. And if he thinks that it's GERD he should suggest some form of acid suppression meds and following a GERD diet to try to tamp down the discomfort. But it's not going to help overnight. You'll have to be patient.
The drug probably didn't cause the heartburn. You may have been ready to 'shown' the symptoms and the med just brought it 'to the surface.'
Stress can play a big factor in making the symptoms more acute. So do everything you can to try to bring the stress level down.
