i would take the pantoprazole but not the prednisone. Prednisone may actually may your reflux worse. In addition i would get pepcid AC from the pharmacy over the counter and take that at night. You are describing a bit of acid reflux, which is normal for most people, but can be annoying and irritating after a prolonged period of time. Go see a gastroenterologist. You are very skinny, and your picture shows the prominance of your submandibular glands. Looks normal. Inflammation of the esophagus can cause the symptoms you describe. Look up eosinophilic esophagitis.
