Fastest relief is Zantac. I take twice a day sometimes every 12 hours.

Have you been checked for celiac? It seems to like autoimmune disorders. My mother is 83 and blessed me with Sjogrens while my Dad passed on Lupus. Celiac wreaks havoc with your digestion. She says ... we can put this in silliest things said ... if she doesn't have to think about it it'll go away. But, with celiac she has reflux gas and alternating IBD and IBS.
Nonetheless, see a gastroenterologist to see what's going on and address it. Chronic reflux and acid stomach heads towards a wealth of problems and celiac can quickly turn to malnourishment no matter how healthy you eat. Hers wasn't bad until she got on a kick of bread baking and adding extra gluten to the dough for the texture and taste it gives!
