Brief Answer:
GERD

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for getting back to me with more questions.

Going by the information you gave me in your previous post, you are having GERD.
As per your own statement, you have got some relief with the medication and the lifestyle changes that was advised.
Now you get only occasional symptoms.
The medication providing some relief itself is diagnostic of GERD.
You can continue the medication for 2 more weeks with more emphasis on the lifestyle changes that was advised.

I hope that answers your query.
Let me know if you have any more questions.
Regards,
Dr.R.K.
