Anyone else here suffer from GERD?

Still not 100% sure that is what I have, but in April I was diagnosed with acid reflux as I had some bad chest pains associated with what ever I ate and drank with real scary heart palpitations and irregular heart rate. Anyway, I have not been able to drink alcohol, not even in small amounts without it giving me problems. Since April after my ER visit, I have cheated twice and drank Guinness beer twice and both times I had issues with my heart.
Now that the holidays are quickly approaching, I want to have a few alcoholic beverages with my friends and family during this X-Mas festive season. However, I am in great fear drinking even one glass of wine or a bottle of beer will give me problems again.
Other GERD sufferers here, are you able to drink alcohol at all, or are moderate amounts alright with your body? How are you all dealing with this medical condition?
Been really pissed I've been drinking the "rich man's" bottled water at bars and clubs for 7 months. It's just criminal paying $9 dollars including my tip for a bottled water at the Brass Rail because of my medical condition.
