Can Taking Lansoprazole Result In Acid Reflux?

I have been taking lansporazole for 3 weeks as i have been waking up in the night gasping for breath with a tickle in my throat. My doctor said it could be acid reflux. Since i have been taking it it seems to have stopped. My doctor told me to stop the lansporazole which i have which seem to have made the symptoms worse. I never had any discomfort during the day bit now i have. I dont get the burning feeling just feeling a bit sick. What do you suggest.
