I too suffer from this and take meds for it as well...... and I know that I get the best relief as long as I take my meds every day - and when I need a little extra boast I suck on a hard piece of peppermint candy..... works every time.

Natural Apple Cider Vinegar - Put about a tablespoon of Natural Cider Vinegar in a glass of water and drink it slowly during your meal.

Apples - When the burning starts, take a bite of apple.

Hard Candy - When you first begin feeling that burning in your throat or you begin coughing, pop a mild tasting hard candy in your mouth.
... butterscotch, root beer, and mild fruit flavors are some of the best.

I love vinegar, but it's one of the things that will trigger an awful reflux attack. Sadly my most severe attacks happen at night, when I'm asleep, a couple weeks ago when my allergies were acting up and I was mouth breathing, I actually aspirated. This was not an enjoyable experience. To top it all off, my insurance company is denying the second daily dose of Nexium. My doc recommended adding a pepcid to the second PM dose.
