Any successful stories/tips on how to get rid of bad acid reflux along with chest pain and abdominal pain?

I have been suffering from bad acid reflux for more than a year now... along with that (seems everything is connected) I also get chest pain when there is bad acid and abdominal pain as well. I have tried eating yogurt, bananas, etc and avoid any food that triggers acid... I have tried to take many kinds of medications such as omeprazole and Randitine, and I have even tried drinking apple cider vinegar based on people's suggestions but NOTHING seems to be working. Please any advice on how to get rid of this acid would help me greatly for I have been suffering for awhile now

Update:

P.S. my doctor thought it was something else and they tested my gallbladder and everything is fine... I also did an endoscopy and there seems to be no damage :(

    Worst case scenario you might have an ulcer. You should see a doctor. For now, try taking a probiotic they come in capsules they might help you. Or just take Tums maybe some Pepto

    Sleep with extra pillows so your stomach acid doesnt irritate the tissue in your throat.

    I was going to mention the omeprazole, which I've heard is the world's best-selling drug.

    Nexium is over-the-counter now, if your doctor or pharmacist clears it.
