I know this isn't IBS related but I need to ask a question. Anybody that deals with GERD/heartburn, does your throat burn?? My throat has been like this off and on the last couple of days and I just want to make sure its either heartburn or GERD. Also, does it feel like there is something in your throat or when you swallow, it takes a second for it to go down? I have been taking Ranitidine, but that really hasn't been helping so I'm going to start taking Nexium. I have taken Protonix before, but it was giving me bad side effects. Also, how long does it take for medicines like Nexium to get into your system? I have a doctor appointment on Monday (for woman exam and talk to her about reflux, and I called her today and asked her if it would be ok to start on Nexium, we have samples already) and I would have made the appointment sooner but I have had alot going on this week and I'm having company this weekend. Any help would be appreciated, Thanks!
