Reflux

I've had reflux for a long time for which I take Protonix daily. My PCP tried weaning me off and I was alternating my dose with a lower dose. Then I became pregnant and the last two months I've been back on the max dose and use Tums a couple times a day. I've been getting vomit coming up these past few weeks. I've had a sore throat all week, which is worse at night, with no other signs of an impending cold or anything. I'm pretty sure it's the reflux causing it. I've taken all the normal measures to try to help (not eating a few hours before bed, elevating my head). Does anybody have this problem and was there anything else your dr suggested? My OB says it should get better as the baby drops, but I need relief in the meantime.

    Thanks ladies! I forgot about Zantac, mainly since taking it alone does nothing for me. DH is getting ready to run to BJs... add it to the list!

    This maybe a little late, but my OB said I could take chewable pepcid.  I don't think my reflux is as bad as yours, but I thought I'd pass along the information.
