Due to diabetes, I'm on Metformin, Glipizide, Lisinopril, & Atenolol. I do experience intermitten acid reflux and take OTC stuff for it. Last night I woke up violently because my throat was closed & I was gasping for air. I did feel the burning in the throat & the regurgitation after I finally could breath. Is this a symptom of acid reflux/gerd? Is it something to see my md over? It really scared me and I want to figure this out.
