Yes, you've indicated side effects of Plaq, but they would usually not have occured so rapidly. I would think the drug has aggravated a pre-existing condition. There may be another drug that would not cause your GERD. You should absolutely keep contact with your dr.

Hi the symptoms you are experiencing are know side effects of plaquenil unfortunately. Maybe your Dr could prescribe an alternative medicine for you?
