@steveutnv Have you tried papaya enzymes I took them for a few years after stopping the nexium until doctors put me on Omeprazole. I was waking up choking with cpap and they said it was from the acid , I still can’t wear the cpap but did stop Omeprazole and pantoprazol to do a heartburn test and had to start back on them before the test because heartburn was severe

No, I hadn't heard about papaya enzymes. I read about it and it says not to use it if you are on blood thinners or have clotting problems. I have thrombocytopenia (low platelet count) so it isn't right for me. Thanks for the suggestion.

I'm coping okay without the Omeprazole by taking two fomitodine a day and using extra strength antacid tablets, elevating the head of my bed, adjusting my diet etc.
