Hello Dr Aadil here , welcome to HCM .. well i reviewed your problem. You can try a few measures.Keep your head at a higher level when you sleep it will that way reduce the reflux. dont go to bed immediately after food. Do not lift heavy weight or strain after meals. You may try over the counter PPIs e.g pantoprazole starting with 20 mg 20 mins before meal.
