Author Muscle relaxants and GERD?

I've had GERD for many years - probably caused by, or
exacerbated by, steady use of NSAIDs due to
fibromyalgia/polymyalgia. It has been treated successfully
with 30mg/day of Prevacid with occasional need for a second
dose during a few rough days.

I'm now taking a few other medications that may be making it
worse but it's hard to tell becuase Doctors blame the
"other" drug for the problem, not theirs.

I'm suspicious of: Skelaxin, zanaflex or Soma.

But I am also taking Lamictal to help stabilize and focus me
and I'm wondering how much of an effect that would have?

All thought much appreciated.
