Hi.
I'm sorry you're having a hard time. I also have GERD but I'm taking meds. Have you seen a doctor? If not, you really should ...and soon. Not getting treated can lead to more serious problems. I take Nexium. I took it for about 8 weeks solid and saw improvement after about 2. I'm now on 1/2 dose because I'm pregnant but it has helped me tremendously.

You should definitely avoid the peppermint caps and peppermint tea. There are other things that trigger the reflux for me, like tomato.

Anyway, good luck to you. And if you haven't seen a doctor, make that appointment!!
