I know someone who had been plagued for about 10 years with constant pain from reflux. He'd suffer pain every day similar to a heart attack because his rib, diaphragm and pectoral muscles would tighten up in response to the pain from the esophagus.
Right now he's on antidepressants. He takes 75 mg of effexor a day and 300 mg of trazodone at night. Most days he has no pain whatsoever but if he just skips one pill one day . . . augh!
He's been on this antidepressant regimen since 1998.
