I started trying to get off it as i have been taking it for 6-7-8 who remembers how long. I started having a tightness in my throat, like something is laying on the back of my throat or tongue. I might take one every few days. LATE YESTERDAY i had to take one as the so called heartburn hit me some time after my afternoon coffee. Apple juice also seems to help a little. I waited for dinner just had a light salad I am not going to take one today, we will see how it goes. Coffee is a pleasant habit until it isn't .

Try healthwise low acid coffee, that's what I drink. Apple juice is acidic so I never drink it.
Drop all spicy and acidic food and drink from your diet.

@stash as @riflemanz64 mentioned, there are low-acid coffees. I had to drink them due to Barrett’s Esophagus which is now in remission. Dark roast coffees all have less acid than other coffees because the acid burns off in the longer roasting time.

I presume you are you not using very vinegary salad dressing either. I never knew that almond is alkaline. I was drinking a lot of that until I realized I needed more protein for my osteoporosis. Now I use regular low-fat milk in my oatmeal in the morning. I actually like almond milk in it more though.
