Gina, I will tell my mom to come and find your thread. I don't know if she had any problems in the beginning, but hopefully she will have some advice for you.

Sorry Gina didn't mean to worry you. I didn't really need it anymore so that's why I decided to stop taking it. I always took it first thing in the morning too. It did really help me.

Gina, I am sorry, but am happy they found out what it was.
I had a couple sessions and it was an awful feeling.
Hope you can get medication that works for you.
Take care.

Thanks everyone for your input.. I have been taking the pill a few days now and to tell you the truth I still get the choking feelings at night. I take the mylanta and that seems to help me better. I was told that the medicine takes at least 5 days to start working . hope this passes soon..

Gina, try elevating the head of your bed on blocks, 6 or 8 inches. I know you said you are sleeping on two pillows, but you might not be staying on the pillows. If the head of the bed is up, you for sure will be elevated. That usually helps a lot!

Gayle thanks for the info, I will try to elevate my mattress. I had to stop the Nexium it was giving me bad gas and diarehha.. He changed it to prevacid, my nephew has bad acid reflux at nighttime to he told me its best to take at night. So I am going to try it tonight. I hope this one works.. keeping fingers crossed...
