i’m wondering because i ate a good amount of spicy food a few weeks ago and i am suddenly experiencing consistent heartburn. is it possible that the food i ate weeks ago is just affecting me now?

I know there are many possibilities. It feels like all of a sudden I forget how to swallow and I choke on foods or liquids. Sometimes it’s so extreme I can’t eat or drink anything for a day. Next day I can sip on Gatorade or something like that, and nibble on chips. After a few days I can eat a little more food, but each time I have an episode like that, when I get better, I don’t get completely back to normal. So I am able to eat very small portions of food carefully even when well. I hate being like this. I saw the doctor, anxiety was ruled out, and I was seen by a gastroenterologist who said it may be GERD. But I have been taking the medication and following the diet the doctor suggested. I still have this difficulty swallowing, and sometimes it’s bad.
I am taking Prilosec and Prozac. When I started with this problem I was on Wellbutrin. I had to change meds so I could have the Prozac in liquid form so I could swallow it. I was off the Wellbutrin for a few months since I started with this problem.

For a couple of weeks now I suffer from chronic palpitations associated with heartburn (this burning pain in the middle of the upper abdomen). I especially feel this in the evening or at night, this makes me feel that it’s coming from acid reflux of some kind. However my diet is not particularely acid. I will check with a doctor next week but could it be sign of something serious? Strangly I am going to major transitions at work at the same time, could it be related to anxiety? I am not stressed at all but could my body feel the stress without my knowning? Anyway should I do x-ray? ECD? I remember feeling the same kind of pain 10 years ago while I was also in a transition at work. However this time I really have nothing to fear. I just feel strange that it all started all of a sudden and while it’s not awfully painful, it’s really bothering since it makes me wonder if I have something serious hidden inside.

I’ve tried to eat healthier foods over the last 24 hours and i’ve taken some tums but nothing seems to work. It’s not a terrible heartburn, it just hurts when i breath in deep.

I am 18 years old,I have never been pregnant, I have never smoked anything, I am 5′2, I am 125 pounds, I have never drank over a couple of sips of alcohol,I have been vegan for 5 years, and I have had issues with acid reflux/ GERD since I was 10.
I had an endoscopy done a little over half a year ago, and I have a hiatal hernia. The doctor gave me eight medications so far (Which include Nexium, Prilosec, Zantac, Dexliant, Prevacid, Tums, etc) and none of the work. Tums has helped a little bit for a couple of minutes, but it’s still bad… I drink coffee almost on a daily basis, which is obviously AWFUL for my acid reflux, and it’s a terrible habit. I did become vegan though which means I have excluded dairy products, eggs, meat, honey, etc from my diet. It helped tremendously, but my GERD is starting to get worse and worse. Usually when I feel GERD, it feels like someone has told me heartbreaking news, and my heart starts doing flips. Lately, I’ve began to start coughing constantly after eating, and I start making a noise that sounds like I’m about to throw up. I don’t know what I should do. The doctor recommends that I wait for the surgery until I’m about 20, but none of the medications are working. I’ve gone to the doctor at least 5 times, and I’m sick of it.
What should I do?

In the past few weeks I’ve gotten heartburn several times and have rarely had it before in my life. In the past couple days I have also experienced an excess in belching and passing gas and feel like they might be related. What could be the cause, should I be worried? My diet hasn’t changed and I’m a 21 year old female.

I am pregnant w bad heartburn

I have a huge water cravings. Off an on throughout the week. I usually chug a big amount of what ever I’m drinking. 1 drink to me is like 3 to someone else. I do drink pop, but I also drink a good amount of water, and juice(juicy juice, sunny d ect.) I have been on a no fat diet, also, but the cravings started before then. I have been previously been tested for sugar and I dont have it. That was about 6 months ago, but I had the craving then too. I also have GERD.

Hi All,

Actually i am suffering from Acidity and HeartBurn from last 5-6 Years but either me and Physician diagnosed well. But in last 1 years i was suffering from it most…headache , gastric dizzy and also To feel anxiety. I also showed to doctor but BP is normal and he said you are very healthy no BP nothing..only you have acidity problem,.

Thanks God and i don’t drink or even smoke. I only like tea 2-3 times a day.

Then i started searching in net and found several reviews and related topics on this. Which is 100 % matching to my Symbtoms.

Now i am not 100 % relived from it but i just got what is actually happening with me.

1) I left Drinking milk –> in Past when i take milk i don’t get sleep well whole night
2) Cut my tea 3 to1 cup(Left Office Machine Tea, which is simulator for acidity)
3) cut using fried onion in Dal Fry or Veg
4) avoided outside or canteen oily and junk foods
5) taking habits of Curd in diet
6) Cut 60 % of oil in veg
7) Now started Kamaduda Ayurved tablet and Aviipattikar Churn
take Honey
9) avoided Heavy means in Noon and Night…which is also creates problem
10) Avoided Citrus Fruits(juice) and veg like Orange,Maussami, anion, lemon, Tomatoo
11) doing few Yoga also in morning Hours also walk is good after lunch or dinner
12) Changed Eating Life Style.

still i am not 100 % well…but i think if i will continue this habit of life Style then i will be fine in feww months.
The Problem is because of my living life style and working Pressure in Office and don’t getting time for ourself !
