I Have Had Heartburn Since Visiting My Daughter 3 Weeks

Question: I have had heartburn since visiting my daughter 3 weeks ago. We went out to dinner and had multiple XXXXXXX for our meal. Later that evening I felt this lump in my throat. I thought I was going to throw up, but didn't. My husband went to the drug store and purchased Prilosec. This helped, but I've continued to have a slighter case of it since then. At times it feels like my heart flutters in my throat. I tried omeprazole which takes the extreme discomfort away. Is there something else I can try?
Brief Answer:
You can try Rabeprazole along with Domperidone
Detailed Answer:
Hi
As per your description,it looks like Gastroesophageal reflux disease.
I prescribe Capsule Rabeprazole along with Domperidone to my patients with similar complaints.You too can try this combination instead of Omeprazole.
If there is no response, you should get an Upper GI endoscopy.
Nothing to worry.
Hope I answered your query.If you have any questions,I will clarify further.
Wish you good health
