GERD
"My husband has been dealing with severe reflux issues for the past four years due to a low-functioning esophageal sphincter.  The acid is free to move about the esophagus when aggravated, most often after eating or sleeping, resulting in severe discomfort upon waking in the morning (bile regurgitation, coughing, etc.).  He suffered from an ulcer a couple years ago due to overactive acid production and we thought we got that taken care of only for the symptoms to return tenfold.  He has been put on every acid blocker you can imagine, none of which worked.  We were certain he was going to need an operation until Dexilant was prescribed.  It has totally transformed his stomach and his life."
