Dear user, if the problem becomes more on lying down you might be having gerd. It is when the esophageal sphincter is lax and causes the backflow of stomach acids into the esophagus then throat. Avoid smoking, alcohol, caffeine products, spicy foods, oily foods, fried foods etc and do not lie down for 2 hrs after a meal. This will increase the reflux. You can use sucralfate syrup for immediate relief. Consult with me online so I will be able to get more history and start you on appropriate medication for it. Good luck.

You can continue with sucralfate. For your gastric trouble you need couple of tests along with ultrasound abdomen. After, that we can plan treatment and sos endoscopy.
