Hi Sara,   The symptoms you are describing can be related to acid reflux. You do not have to have heartburn or discomfort to have an issue related to acid reflux. You can read more about acid reflux here in the over view. You can also check your symptoms here in the symptoms database. Since your doctor has prescribed medications, you can check those here in the drugs database. Prilosec OTC is the over the counter formulary of the brand name Prilosec or Omeprozole (generic). You can read about Prilosec here. You can also check out alternative treatments here in the treatments database.   I hope this helps. There is alot of great information here at Health Central that will help you ask all the right questions when you see your doctor, however, online resources should never take the place of your doctor's care and advice. Take care and stay in touch!Vicki M
