Constant indigestion and acid reflux

For the last 3 months roughly I've been having problems with acid indigestion and then about 6 weeks ago the acid indigestion would occur every single time I ate and would last about 3 hours.
I then went on lansoprazole for a month to reduce the acid and I had no indigestion but still had problems with too much saliva and mucous/phlegm and bits of blood in the phlegm and then came off it and the problems worse than ever
I start university very very soon and I'm extremely worried - not just because of the pain of the indigestion - it extends to my back and neck - but the reflux - I find I sometimes can't swallow it :frown: I dread the thought of lectures if I can't swallow it.
It makes no difference what I eat either - I'm not drinking alcohol coffee tea fizzy drinks eating citrus fruits chocolate.
Even just eating a banana causes major problems within an hour after eating.
Has anyone had this before - not just lasting a single day or so and do you have any ideas how to fix it.
I also have had a blood test for heliobacter pylori which came up negative :mad:
