Brief Answer:
Possible GERD
Detailed Answer:
HI
I am Dr Mittal.
I have read the message.
I agree with you that this might be GERD.
You need to get a endoscopy tested.
For now get injection Pantoprazole.
Thereafter a regular course of Pantoprazole 40 mg daily prior to meals will help you.
Avoid spices, beverages, non veg diet.
Tall to your doctor - iron and potassium that you take may actually increase the GERD.
It may be better to take foods rich in them rather than supplements.
In case you need to ask anything more specific please do enter a follow up query.
Best of luck, Dr Mittal.
