Does anyone else suffer? I've had GERD for about 12 years now. Up until about a year ago, I managed on Ranitidine but then it got increasingly worse and I had to go on Omeprazole but I can't take it now being pregnant so I'm stuck back on Ranitidine and it just doesn't cut it. I have heartburn regardless of what I eat. I constantly feel sick and even now the thought of eating triggers pain. I've completely cut out caffeine, anything spicy, tomato or citrus based. The head of my bed is raised and I'm chewing several antacid tablets on top of my 2 pills a day. I could easily take 3 as I can barely make it until my next dose. I only drink water or milk now and pretty much live on fairly bland foods. I'm already down to eating about half the amount of food I used to eat before I got pregnant.
