Still confused about LPR

Hi, I posted before but LPR is still confusing me. I haven't seen an ENT yet as the wait was 4 months.

I was getting the thick salvia, ear ache and really bad sinus headaches again, nausea and horse voice. So I went back on zantac for a bit to see if this helps. This morning I woke up with small red patches on roof of my mouth which I haven't had for a while and had breathing trouble again last night before bed. My mouth is now very dry.

So if I take Zantac and I am getting these symptoms, why would this make the breathing worse. I just don't understand it as I am only 31 so surely low stomach acid isn't possible is it? Or is there some other issue with digestion after my stomach virus in October and anti acids make it worse.
I am at a real loss of what to do now and I just cant figure out what's going on. Anyone got any suggestions from past experiences.

They said it all looked fine, so I'm not sure at all.
They took a stomach sample incase h ployri was an issue but that was fine. I'm following the fodmap diet currently and trying to see if anything triggers it but not found anything yet.
I just don't know what's going on and why this has happened. The breathing issues are really worrying but it's not always there. I don't know if anxiety over it makes it worse.

There is no one diet that works for everyone who has reflux. Even finding triggers is only possible if you keep a food journal, not just follow some diet. The foods in your diet may be the triggers, if indeed you have triggers.

Finding if you have reflux events getting past the lower esophageal sphincter is possible with the barium swallow, if you happen to have easily triggered events. Just looking into the esophagus and stomach doesn't show what happens in real situations like eating.

My triggers have nothing to do with acidity of my foods. I'm fine with orange juice, tomato sauce, but I don't tolerate gelatin or brown sugar, pork, corn starch, and many more not obviously related foods.

Fodmap has nothing to do with my reflux triggers. I can eat a good many of the "high" level foods and can't eat a bunch of the "low" ones.

But my triggers aren't the only kind and don't affect everyone. That's where the food journal comes in. It took me months to figure mine out, so don't give up. Do your own research!

It took going to a good gastroenterologist and an allergist, having many tests, and doing my own studies to find my problems, and I didn't have only a food trigger problem! A bad valve made it more difficult to determine that specific food triggers were indeed part of the problem. Both problems had to be treated!
