There is an antacid that coats the esophagus and is useful for resistant heartburn. It is called Gaviscon. If you don't have warnings on your pill bottles, about calcium etc, you can try this before bedtime. It usually does the trick for many people.
Insomnia is listed for all the PPI meds in that family as a side effect. I tried looking for the mechanism and could not find it.
Just having an upset stomach can cause sleep disturbances. I have a birth defect of the GI tract that when it starts, begins with insomnia, before I feel the cramping which comes later.
