TMI so don’t read if you’re eating

been to the GP today with various symptoms including near fainting, air hunger, tired all the time, generally feeling shit. Had a mass of bloods done and waiting on results

i forgot what happened the other day and today. When I woke up, and I get out of bed, it’s like my throat is filled with acid vomit and it’s burning like mad and takes ages to settle. Is this reflux? Never had it before. And what can you take for it?

Get some peptac liquid from the chemists it’s better than gaviscon. I have severe reflux and was told by the hospital after an endoscopy to take it.

I’ve got lansoprazole in the house if that would work? I had it as a stomach protector when I was on naproxen
