Taking Synthroid with esomeprazole?

I'm always surprised to hear people ask questions their doctor knows the answer to. I found the best type of doctor is an internist they are trained in the use of all medications and illnesses. They are not specialists in the usual sense but a triage specialist. That said, I've had GERD for 35 years and have taken all the PPI brands, including Nexium (esomeprazole). If you suffer whenever you discontinue a PPI you probably should not do so, as it may well lead to damage of the sphincter that protects your esophagus. Once this is damaged badly, it cannot be repaired to my knowledge. I know that mine is damaged, and the function may even be gone. My gastroenterologist of 25 years has kept me on PPIs and H2 blockers for years if I miss a day's dose, I feel it the very next day, and getting back on track can take 24 hours. Your Dr. has put you on the PPI because your hyper acidic which suggests to me you have plenty of acid to process the other medications in your daily life. Speak to your doctor you don't need to visit just call and ask or use the Portal if he/she has that online communication. Most offices have it these days call the office and ask. There's no cost to ask a question of your attending doctor. You certainly shouldn't shy away from your doctor. Insist his secretary relates your questions to the doctor and be sure to get the answers.
