I hate my acid reflux so much. Constant chest pain, back pains, throat pains, tightness, shortness of breath, burps, hiccups, globus sensation, headaches, swollen lymph nodes, postnasal drip, congestion, chronic cough, inability to eat basically all of my favorite foods, inability to lie down after eating, inability to eat late at night, inability to eat out at many places, trouble swallowing, need to sleep on an incline which fucks up my hips, the list goes on. I hate this. I have been back on a low-fodmap diet for a week, and I'm still having a flare that started a week ago. Omeprazole/pantop does practically nothing. Nothing helps. I have felt like I'm choking for a week. I am a big foodie and I hate not being able to eat ANYTHING. Even foods I am "allowed" to eat exacerbate the flare. I barely eat at all anymore. This is hell. I wish you could just waltz in and ask for surgery because I don't want to live like this.
Take psyllium husk capsules. 4-5 capsules, 2 to 3 times a day for a month. It works wonders for digestive issues. It is called a Isabgol in Nepali.
No side effects, it is an ayurvedic cure for gastro ailments. I have been using it for my stomach issues.
People mainly use it for poop problems here in US but in ayurved it is known as a cure all for all digestive issues. I had similar issues like yours it has healed me.
This is the brand I use.

How long you have had these issues? Does it hurt in the left side on the chest bone? You have some options
- if it’s bad reflux, you need to try carafrate and omelrozole( prescribe strength)
- how is your digestion? Liver and pancreas and gall balladeer- could be gall stones issues?
- go and do H. Pylori in blood- trust me blood test would identify if you have ever infected with H. Pylori. You can get breath test after your antibiotic treatment( triple antibiotics)
- if it don’t work need to run endoscopy and check the tissue sample.

Not eating will worsen your situation. Eat laukaa, ghiraulaa, farshi , boil potato without spices. Make sure you chew well before swallow. Anyone heard of GhoraTaapre , it is beneficial for your case.
One of my coworker from Argentina suggested to have (blended) raw potato juice. Not needed to try yet, will try if needed.
