Heartburn Help?

Hi all!
I'm new here -- to both this site and motherhood (if this discussion should go elsewhere, please let me know. I don't want to violate any guidelines or anything). I am currently 12 weeks pregnant with what will be my first baby and I am...not coping well. I've been diagnosed with HG and have been struggling immensely with that. But additionally, I feel like EVERY. SINGLE. THING. I eat gives me heartburn/acid reflux and adds to my nausea and sometimes even causes my vomiting. And when I say every single thing, I mean everything -- I'm talking yogurt, bland cereal, toast, etc. From what I've read, bland foods shouldn't cause me much issue, but I'm finding that to be untrue. Has anybody else struggled with this and if so, what (if anything) helped?? I'm on a variety of nausea and heartburn meds (Zofran, Metoclopramide, Pepcid, and Mylanta -- nothing seems to help and I'm starting to feel helpless. I'm also starting to fear food all together, which isn't good because I've been losing weight. Looking for advice for any veteran moms out there or anybody who's dealt with similar issues and found the light at the end of the tunnel. Anything helps -- Thank you!
