When I took Prilosec for a while, I got heart palpitations. Then I would go off it, and within a day the heart palpitations went away. Then I’d go back on the Prilosec, and within a week or so the palpitations would come back. Rinse and repeat. So I know it was the Prilosec causing the palps. Since I stopped taking it, those palpitations have never returned.
Now I take a whey protein powder, and it has the reflux under control. I have also found that certain foods (like cheese or maybe ice cream) make the reflux worse, perhaps related to a “food sensitivity” which I am trying to figure out.
Milk and milk products have lactic acid. It’s the acidity aggravating your GERD.

What is that, who makes it and why does it work?

Was this atrial fibillations?
Interesting if it was.
