I began experiencing symptoms of GERD soon after taking taking multiple rounds of antibiotics for a recurring Sinus Infection. For a little under a year I was pretty miserable, I would wake up to a sore throat that would not go away throughout the day despite all the ginger, honey, tea, and throat drops money could buy. Oddly enough, not only throat feel dry and sore but it also felt as though there was always mucus stuck in the back of my throat.
