I am on 100 Metformin 500mg tabs Bls (sz). 1 a day But after a month I have reflux. Terrible pains In my chest and throat of a night time. I can feel it building up during the day. I have taken quickeze which eventually eases it but lately I have tried 2 teaspoons of raw unfiltered apple cider vinegar before main meal and found that really helps. pain in very slight when I do that. I am going to build up to a tablespoon a day Am I doing the right thing or should I go back to my Doctor Thankyou

It is mostly due to some chest infection for which you can take antibiotics like moxikind-cv or azithromycin after an expert opinion along with diominic-dca or wikoryl for throat discomfort. Take syrup ambrodil-s or respital-p for soothing of the throat. Do warm water gargles and take steam inhalation also.
