What Is Heartburn

What is Heartburn No More? - Is It A Scam?

I started struggling with significant heartburn during my 1st pregnancy. Just before that I had rarely had more than the occasional bout of indigestion so when this occurred to me, I thought I was getting a heart assault! Being pregnant I was unwilling to take something apart from a glass of milk, which, obviously, did small or nothing to assist.

The heartburn became worse at night and I would pile pillow upon pillow until I was sleeping in a sitting placement. Properly, I say sleeping, but to become truthful that was sometimes difficult. I used to lie awake 50 percent the night feeling extremely sorry for myself and, at my lowest point, almost wishing I wasn't pregnant. No modifications to my diet appeared to aid and there was just no relief except to wait for my pregnancy to finish.

Nonetheless the heartburn did not go absent once the baby was born. As an alternative I was plagued by unpleasant acid reflux and indigestion. I employed to buy antacids wholesale and I tried each and every item out there. Some had completely no effect, while others brought gentle, momentary relief. I kept a foods diary to try to recognize foods that triggered attacks so I could make lifestyle modifications, but whilst I could eradicate 1 or two, there was no actual consistency in my findings.

    Is this Heartburn, anxiety or what?
    I was wondering, I’ve never really had heartburn before, so I wouldn’t know and I never suffer from anxiety attacks or anything.
    For the past week, I developed this sore throat and now there is this tight feeling in my throat and goes all the way down to the chest. And now I seem to be out of breath, I’ve noticed that all I was doing was sweeping up and I was so out of breath I could not talk. (I’ve never had this before).

    Also I have other symptoms for example a really stiff neck, bad headache, nausea, a productive cough, stomach ache. Sleepiness Ive also got some ear infection too.

    I know this isn’t the place to find a diagnoses, so I apologise. The doctors where I live are crap and you can never really get an appointment.

    What the heck is going on?
    I had unprotected sex on the 18th of August. I am going on 2.5 weeks late. I have been getting a ton of headaches, dizziness, cramps and lower back pain. Starting yesterday I can’t eat without being nauseas and had super bad heartburn last night. I have taken a couple of HPT and they were all negative. If I am not pregnant, there is a monster growing inside me! Ok, maybe not but what the heck is going on! All symptoms point to pregnancy!
    I have an appt with the Doctor Friday.

    I have tightening in my stomach as well! I will take one more test in the morning just for you! And I will definitely let you know. Best of luck to you!!

    What could this be other than heartburn?
    My husband gets a stuck feeling in his throat/chest every time he eats anything. This has been going on two years and he is 33. Heartburn medicine does nothing. What could it be?

    What On Earth Is Wrong With Me?
    So for about 2 weeks now I’ve been having really pain in my upper/lower stomach, back, and sometimes my chest. I’ve also been peeing alot, feeling hungry more than often, and nauses. I saw my doctor Wendesday and he couldn’t really tell me what’s wrong. He gave me some medicine for pain and told me just to see how I feel in a couple of days and If things aren’t getting better or get worse, call him or go to the ER. So I woke this morning feeling awful, I felt really hot so I went to the ER. They did an ultrsound of my upper/lower stomach, gall bladder, liver, apendix, pancreis, the whole shabang. They took urine, and they took blood. He comes back and says My sugar level is fine(so diabetes is out of the question), there were no tumors on my pancreis, stomach, liver, gall bladder, or kidneys. MY urine came back perfectly fine, and he said my blood was perfect(So the possability of ANY type of cancer is out the window as well) He gave me a laundry list of persriptions and told me if things don’t get better to come back and they’ll talk about doing a scope thingy to look for an ulcer.

    So it’s not any kind of cancer, not diabetic, no bladder infection, no gall stones, no NOTHING! It’s like I’m perfectly fine.

    But here’s my problem, I got up this morning and I looked thinner. And I have been gradualy losing weight. My symptoms are as follows

    -upper/lower stomach pains
    -frequent urination
    -heartburn(every now and then) It seems worse ater I eat
    -nausea

    What on earth is wrong with me!!!!!!
    If someone could shed some light on this I’d sppreciate it so very much.

    Thankyou..

    Missed period, heartburn, nauseas, cramps, back aches…negative test? What is wrong with me?

    You really need to encourage your husband to go and visit his doctor asap, and whilst I know men can be pretty stubborn for visiting their doctors, he really should not have allowed this to go on for 2 years. It sounds like a stomach condition, but could be a number of things going on in the chest, most of which can be cured so do bare that in mind.

    I am not a medical person, but I had the same thing too, turned out it was my stomach but also my heart too, so you see, the sooner he gets diagnosed the sooner the medical profession can get him back together again. Keep in mind that he is young, and that it can and probably is nothing as serious as the heart or cancer, but is probably something like an ulcer or gastric problems with the stomach, whatever it is, it will not go away on its own, so he really must visit his own doctor soon.

    Good Luck

    I took 5 pregnancy tests thinking I was pregnant and they were all negative. I waited a week and went to my local health department, almost 100 percent sure I was not pregnant. (My mom made me go take the test). And sure enough I was. Wait a week and keep taking them or go to the doctor and have them do a blood test.
