I have several herniated discs in my thoracic spine and I’ve tried several steroid injections as well as several months of physical therapy.

I have acid reflux and small ulcers from acid development. I'm uncomfortable eating and can only eat small amounts at a time, often needing to take food to go. I burp acidic-tasting saliva frequently after eating. What over-the-counter (OTC) medications can I take to help, and are there any lifestyle changes I should make?
