                        I have had asthma for 12 years.  For the past 6 weeks I have been experiencing GERD.  I had an endoscopy three weeks ago today, and am presently taking Aciphex.  Have tried Prevacid, but it made the GERD worse plus broke me out in a rash.  The Aciphex works all right on some days, but then some days are hard.  My chest feels so tight, wheezy, and I feel the need to burp. It's sometimes hard to breathe, also.  At night, I have a tickle in my throat when I try to go to sleep.  I don't have your typical burning esophagus/ belching symptoms like many do.  I need some advice please on what to do.    Carol
