What can I do for acid reflux besides taking Protonix. It really burns at night.?

I used to get stomach ulcers and acid reflux and gastritis all the time, back when I was in college. I had x-rays taken of my stomach and remember laying on my bed in teh fetal position more often than not. I was 18 at the time, in the best shape of my life (aside from the digestive problems) but the pain killed me. I took malox and was on nexium (or what ever the fad pill of the day was) and they helped me get on with life. But they never addressed the reason/cause of why I was getting the problems, so they all kept coming back. It didn’t matter what I ate, even the bland diet I tried didn’t help. Antibiotics did nothing. I drank WATER like a fish, still nothing.Long story short, my friend turned me onto Chiropractic and after a year or so of care, I have never had another episode in my life. I’m thirty now. During the course of the year of care, I slowly weened myself off of all medication, prescription and over the counter alike. Now that I am a Chiropractor, I have helped many a patient with similar problems. It works every time. Click on my bio and email me, i’ll help you find someone in your area who can help you.In the meantime, go to your local health food store and buy a bottle of liquid Aloe Vera. Take about a shot a day. I used to but it in one liter bottles and fill the cap, mix it with water (NOT JUICE) and drink it. It will help soothe your throat and stomach and begin aiding your body in HEALING what damage has occured in those areas due to the stomach acid.Your body heals itself everyday, if you doubt it, give yourself a paper cut and watch what happens over the next couple of weeks. But for it to do so, you need to give it proper time and “motivation.”I’ll be waiting to hear from you….
