Dear maryalice,
Probiotics actually help to heal the lining of the digestive tract and reduce inflammation. You would want to choose a powdered form of probiotic so it would come into direct contact with the esophagus into the stomach, a product like Renew Life Ultimate Flora Super Critical 200 billion which comes in little sachets (envelopes).
There are very many causes of GERD and related issues. If you would like to contact my assistant at jsinclaire@renewlife.com, she will send you the chapter from my new book on GERD, which includes protocols that might be helpful for you, and also discusses the effects of medicines like Prevacid.
Surgery is a personal decision, however there are many diet and lifestyle changes that may be able to relieve your symptoms and also increase your health overall.

I have a large hiatal hernia and gerd. I take 30 mg. of Prevacid twice a day. How can probiotics help a problem in the upper digestive track such as gerd? I am considering having hiatal hernia repair surgery, but am not convinced that is the right thing to do to feel better.
