I do have GERD and have been on Pantoprazole for 3 years. I have the HOB elevated 6" and not eating for at least 2 hours before going to bed.
My present pulmonologist. The jury is still out. I selected this practice because and a particular doc because he specialized in broncho... and has done research studies. My 1st appointment with him. Something happened and I was seen by a NP. Then the next appointment was made with her. When I asked for the doctor that I wanted, I was told "You started with her and if you want to change providers you will have to request it in writing." I will request it in writing if necessary. I have only seen her for the past 9 months. I do like my new PCP!!

Yikes..@raney ! You are being seen by just an NP and the Pulmo will not see you without a written request? If I were you I would be looking for a Pulmonologist that cared for his/her patients. Sorry to be so blunt and to put in my 2 cents ..but sounds as though you are just being shuffled around and not getting good care or even the attention from the Doc. I would be running, not walking from this.
