I had a similar situation and since raising the bed didn't help and it didn't seem to have anything to do with fats - altho they seemed to make it a bit worse -- the only thing the Dr. could do was give me lots of Tagamet (which has its own side-effects). However, what I found was that when I went on the Atkins diet - high protein and almost NO carbohydrates -- I no longer have acid reflux, pain or heartburn. Go off that and eat bread & pasta and such for awhile & it comes back. It certainly won't hurt you to cut out the carbs & see what happens.
