Thanks for your question on Health Care Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Along with drugs, GERD needs following lifestyle modifications for complete symptomatic relief.
So start these lifestyle modifications.
1. Avoid hot and spicy food.
2. Avoid junk food. Avoid stress and tension.
3. Avoid large meals, instead take frequent small meals.
4. Go for walk after meals.
5. Keep 2-3 pillows under head in the bed to prevent reflux.
6. Avoid smoking and alcohol if you have these habits.
7. Loose weight if you are obese.
Don't worry, you will be alright.
Hope I have solved your query. Wish you good health. Thanks.
