I have had heartburn off and on since 2007. Recently (past 4 months) it has been really bad. I was on protonixProtonix Protonix iv for 3 months and got no relief. It gets so bad some nights that I cant sit, lay down or stand up without tasting acid in my mouth. I would say that i get heartburn at least 5 nights or more a week. Ive tried taking PepcidPepcid Pepcid ac Pepcid ac maximum strength Pepcid complete Pepcid rpd AC, TUMS and ProtonixProtonix Protonix iv none of these even touch it. More recently i now have pain just below my ribcage/above my stomach that feels almost like a muscle strainStrains but its constantly there and hurts more when i bend over or sit down. What should I do?
