Glad to hear the ticker checked out good.
Hey, I had the same problem about 8 yrs. ago, & finally my
doctor found out that it was my esophagus causing the
problem.

I take prevacid, & aloe juice for it & get along pretty good now.
I think the aloe juice does as good if not better then the prevacid.
I took the prevacid for 3 months without any change, then started
taking 1 ounce of aloe 3 times a day, within 4 weeks time I
could feel things getting better, after 1 yr. I dropped down to
only 1 ounce a day.

Did a doctor ever check your esophagus ?
Might be worth a try if they haven't.
