acid burning my throat !!

hi i,m new to this site i,m 34 and i want a bit of ressurance and guidence i,m on the verge of cracking up   it started  about 10 months ago when every morning i woke up with a saw throat so i went to my doctor who reffered me to the ear nose and throat clinic, i told them i get heart burn every now and again so he  had a quick look and said i suffer gerd to he packed me off with lansoprazole ppi which i took for 6 months it was great for the heart burn, but i still woke up with a saw throat still every morning, so i stopped taking them and went back to ent place and they stuck the camera down my nose and they said i have Laryngopharyngeal Reflux which he then packed me off with rantidine twice a day plus gaviscon 4 times a day which i did take for long as i get very anxious about taking tablets. so i got rid of them and went back on ppi lansoprazole 30ml tablets this time and taken them for a month once a day, and the past week i have been suffering really bad with acid burning my throat everytime i swallow, i have a saw lumb in my throat, and i belch all the time, asma like symtoms,acid taste in mouth i did not have a big acid problem to start now i have a list of problems since taken tablets, its on my mind 24/7 now i carnt concentrate its starting to take over my life i,m trying all sorts of things, cutting certain foods out, i,m scared of getting of all the long term problems

i though that drugs make it worse from day one as when i stop taken ppi i get 5 times the full sha bang, but i dont get heart burn cause of ppi,s but i get all the other stuff that comes with it acid burning which is driving crazy. i went for a kinsology test months ago and she said i am allergic to wheat and chocolate and some other things so now i,m thinking it could stem from eating so i might go back and see her if she can help. as i eat cereal every day now for 2 years but i never bothered before. i wish i woke up tommorrow and it was gone :(

i know its not good getting stressed but when you have a acid taste in your mouth, and when you swallow its like swallowing acid it kind on starts getting you down, a bit, i been fine on ppi,s up till last week it started with the odd acid in the throat on the afternoon but all this weekend it has been really bad from friday through to tuesday, its been a bit better today. i,ve been drinking that aloe vera since last week
