It may be worth trying out another PPI as well during your process.
When my GERD first happened, I tried both Nexium and its cousin Prilosec. I found no benefit, and I had side effects with Nexium especially.
I was then put on Prevacid, which was immediately successful and gave me no noticeable side effects. It worked for a long time until my NERD symptoms required surgery. Some people are the other way around... different for everyone. Worth a shot!
