I also have gastroesophageal and was diagnosed by ENT in Hawaii. It is annoying and I have not found that any of the proton inhibitors like omeprazole have helped at all. I have even been put on a double strength dose for over 6 months. Nothing works. I don't like taking them either because of the long term side effects. I am about to try domperidone which is what someone else on the Mayo site has recommended. Failing that, there are some surgery options which I am going to look into further. I have had this problem for years and it has eventually affected my hearing. I hope you have some good luck.
