Welcome to Acid Reflux Blog
Gastroesophageal reflux disease, commonly referred to as GERD or acid reflux, is a condition in which the liquid content of the stomach regurgitates (backs up or refluxes) into the esophagus. The liquid can inflame and damage the lining (cause, cause esophagitis) of the esophagus although visible signs of inflammation occur in a minority of patients.

Posted on November 7th, 2009 2 commentsSometimes I get fits of belching where it feels and tastes very carbonated even though I have consumed no carbonated beverages. What causes this and how can this be treated? Should I take more Pepcid, Prevacid, and ginger when this occurs?Related posts:

i have acid refulx and had the same problem all the pepcid in the world didn’t help me. I recommend that you go to the doctor and get nexium ive been taking it now for two months and after two days of taking it i had no more bleching no stomach achs nothing and i can eat whatever i want. also if you get heartburn alot like everyweek you need to go get some meds otherwise you’ll ruin your esphogus and stomach. I hope you have insurance though cause its expensive i think its about 120 -140 a month with no insurance. In my opionion its worth it.

Try a different approach. Excess gas is a sign that you don’t have enough acid in your stomach. How about stop taking the antacids and try a tablespoon of dark apple cider vinegar. It might solve your problem the same way it did mine. Consult a doctor though. It doesn’t work for everyone.
