I try to use rolaids, tums, mylanta, or zantac. It helps most! Its normal for this to occur with gerd, i have the same problem everyday. I have to get surgery now, so try your hardest to prevent the same for you. Dont eat 2 hours before bed, watch your diet, and elevate your bed. Gerd occurs worse at night so it should help. Good luck!
