Sometimes, I get what I think is heartburn, and it pains so bad that I feel it hurting in my jaw, is that heartburn?

it feels like i just dry swallowed a pill sometimes, and others it feels like my chest is being torn apart right under my sternum. the pain comes in waves, and every time i swallow or breath heavily. it is so bad my eyes water. it has lasted 6 days and has gotten progressively worse. it is not as bad when i am sitting. wtf is wrong with me!?!?! o.O
no i dont get weird tastes, but when i burp it seems to make the pain go away. they arent "wet" though.

I have not eaten anything all day, i just drank water, gatorade, and soda……..and now i feel like i have heatburn…I am barely going to start eating right now, do you think this will help?

conception?

I recently discovered I was allergic to wheat.
I started feeling so much better once i stopped eating wheat.
I haven’t eaten any wheat products at all, but I have been around wheat products lately. I have gotten my symptoms back (heartburn and tightness in chest) since. I am currently sick and that is when it started getting worse. Is it normal for my body to have symptoms back when I am sick?

I read this isn’t possible until later on during pregnancy, but for the last 2 days, I have had weird pain/nausea feeling high up in my stomach…I have never had this feeling before. Anyone have any ideas what could be going on? I have also been more tired than normal (which could be attributed to many other things!), and my breasts seem huge (but again, could be my mind playing tricks on me)…thanks for any and all suggestions!

so these are the symptoms of gastritis:

Abdominal upset
Abdominal pain
Belching
Abdominal bloating
Nausea
Vomiting
Feeling of fullness
Burning sensation in the upper abdomen
Blood in vomit or black stools

but all i have is the abdominal pain, nausea, vomitting from eating only, and feeling of fullness constantly. is it possible to still have gastritis?

i went to the ER last night, and he said that i may have gastritis. but they say usually the whole heartburn symptoms are the main ones. i never have heartburn. also could this lead to stomach cancer? or could it be a sign of stomach cancer? there’s a history of that in my family. oh and i know it’s not my gallbladder, had it removed in nov. 2006.
thanks, i am already seeing a digestive disease dr. they are still unsure what the problem could be. the one i’m seeing now makes the 3rd one.

im getting indigestion and heartburn everyday but im also worried and scared about my health everyday so could this be anxiety

I have been on Protonix since May and within the past month my dr upped me from 40mg to 80mg of protonix daily (one in morning and one at night). I still often times notice that I have the chest pressure and bloating I had from my acid reflux before. I burp a lot and even when im not I still have the feeling I need to burp. FYI ALERT – My stools are soft and sometimes feel like they are acidic (Kinda like diarrhea feels) but its not that soft. I have even had a streak of blood in my stool and it hurts when its at the last part of coming out (sorry).

I dont know what to do anymore. I’ve had 2 barrium studies (one esophagus and one stomach and slightly below). He said everything completely normal, no acid reflux or anything. They did an Hpylori test and it came back completely normal.

I do have other symptoms such as racing heart (at times), heart PVCs (Flutters), wake up at night or in the morning sweating, woke up a few times with an arm sore like I had exercised all night, dizziness, tightness in my neck muscles all the way down to my shoulders, and sinus issues (stuffy nose, slight pain in face and headaches under eyebrows daily).

I know this is a huge array of symptoms but I wanted to let everyone know everything thats been going on. This has all been happening various symptoms at various times, usually for a week or so at a time and goes away for a week, sometimes more or less. I’ve noticed the week before my period some things get worse like PVCs, rapid heart rate, irritibility, anxiety. I do have some issues with anxiety full term ever since about 5 months after my dad died (most of my anxiety is health related).

Anyways if you can help me at all PLEASE do..Even if this sounds simliar to something you’ve experienced, I’d love to hear! I need to soften the symptoms at the least.
Another thing I should add is I’ve had 6 EKGs, 5 panels of completely blood tests, blood cultures, thyroid testing twice, CT scan with contrast of neck, chest and abdomen, 3 chest xrays, ultrasound of gallbladder, liver, kidneys, pancreas, appendix and aorota. I am scheduled to have an ECHO and stress test this week even tho cardio dr says hes sure nothing is wrong with my heart. Everything came back normal except for a slight vitamin D defiency which I take vita D for everyday.

I’m 46, in good shape, not overweight, with no historry of digestive or heart disease or cancer in my family.

For several months, and increasingly in the last 2 months, I’ve had what feels a lot like heartburn/acid-reflux. About 5 weeks ago, I had a pain in my chest so bad around the esophagal/heart area it felt like I was having a heart attack!

I don’t think it’s heart-related, but I’m just saying, the pain was that severe.

I saw a family physician twice the last week of August, and he put me on nexium, for 30 days, which I just ceased taking at his recommendation, 3 days ago).
Nexium LIMITED the pain, but did not eliminate it. I still had a dull ache around the esophagal area, although lessened by Nexium. My Dr said if it was acid reflux, that would definitely have eliminated it, so that eliminates that. He also tested me for the bacteria that causes ulcers, and I tested negative for that.

I didn’t like taking nexium, it made me feel like I was on the edge of being incontinent, and I had loose bowel movements and headaches the whole month I was on it.
My doctor initially had me on Nexium for 2 months, but said if it wasn’t helping after 30 days, I might as well discontinue it.

My Dr also gave me an EKG to test for potential heart problems, and that showed no signs of heart trouble.

He also did bloodwork, and the only bad sign was my cholesterol was 238, which he advised me to get down, and I’ve almost completely given up meat and dairy to make an immediate improvement in that.

I’m 5′ 11", 180 lbs, in good shape, with no physical problems otherwise.
I usually feel indigestion and chest pain/acid-reflux-like symptoms 2 to 3 hours after I eat, and often releive the pain/pressure by pressing on points of my upper pectoralis muscles, and burping (as quietly as I can). I think it could possibly just be gas pain, but it seems my esophagus or something else is inflamed.
I burp, quietly, sometimes 100, 200 or more times. And I don’t want to, but it seems to be the only thing that releives the pressure and pain, at least partially. Sometimes I press on my pectoralis points till my chest is black and blue (although not often) to releive the pressure.
I work as a massage therapist, and so have a very physical job. I’m in discomfort, but –so far— it does not impair my ability to work. Although sometimes I’m at the upper threshold of pain I can comfortably work with.
It often helps me to work rather than sit at my desk, because then I’m flexing my chest muscles, and that relieves and stretches it.

I also feel frequent itching/irritation around my tonsils and the back of my throat, possibly related to irritation of my esophagus.
I’ve never felt nausea, vomiting or vomiting blood, which I’ve seen are symptoms of esophagal cancer. My doctor says based on what he’s seen so far, he doesn’t think it’s heart disease or any kind of cancer. But this ongoing inflammation can’t be good.

The only other health problem I have is mild allergies, although I’m extremely allergic to mold, and that can irritate my throat and make it burn, especially when air conditioning first comes on and kicks up dust in the vents. And when I’m outside near a canal or other place where mold grows abundantly. But that is largely controllable.

I’m concerned because the chest pain has kicked up considerably in the last 6 weeks.

I’m also currently uninsured, although I make about 30,000 annually and can for the first time in my life afford insurance. I’m concerned if I see a gastro-enterologist, he’ll just say "Sorry, nothing I can do, 300 dollars please".
Or if it is a serious medical condition, they’ll deny me coverage and say it’s a pre-existing condition.
I also have no idea how to find a good insurance provider.

Please advise me, what you think it is, and how it can be treated and eliminated. Thank you !
The most persistent symptom is chest pain, centered around the third rib, just to the left of my sternum, and tightness in my chest muscles on the same point and 2-inch radius around it.

For maybe a year, I only felt it after I ate, about 2 to 3 hours after eating. But the last 5 weeks, I feel it pretty much from the moment I wake up until I go to sleep, more inflamed when I eat.
I notice no symptoms of fatigue or sweating to indicate heart problems. And again, I had an EKG 1 month ago that indicated no heart problems.

I’ve been in and out of the bathroom four times, when I close my eyes I feel like I"m spinning, when I lay down I can feel what I’ve eaten today crawling back up my throat and I have to keep swallowing. it’s not coming into my mouth but it feels like it could. what could these be symptoms of? I had a lot of mt dew before bed, could that be it? no kind of drugs or alcohol.
yeah i had a bad headache a couple of hours ago. i took a 800 milligram ibuprofen from my csection a year ago. i’m starting to feel cold too but that could be the air conditioner.?

My period is 2 weeks late (maybe one because my cycle is so irregular that it would sometimes come at the last week of the month) and 2 days ago I went to get a urine test at the doctor’s which came back negative. I don’t have any other symptoms except usual period cramps and last night for the first time I had mild heartburn. I’m also taking strep throat antibiotics which have heartburn as a side effect. So I’m wondering if I should worry or my panicking is delaying my period even more.

I don’t have any other typical hangover symptoms, no headache, no shakes, no sick stomach – nothing – just this incredibly painful, inconsistent pressure that comes and goes like heartburn, but without having eaten anything!! I’ve had it for two days now, it doesn’t matter if it’s before or after meals, morning, noon or night. And yes, I went drinking (rum and coke and whiskey and 7up) both nights…. but not fall-down-pass-out drunk…. just…. "happy" drunk! Any suggestions?!?!

everytime I eat a meal I get a painfull feeling in my chest sometimes where my hear is and sometimes opposite of it.

And a few minutes ago I got a random stabbing feeling on/in my heart.

I am going to go see a doctor but is it serious enough to go right away or does anyone know what it is.

It has been going on for two weeks.

Last weekend I spent 2 nights smoking and drinking heavily with my friends. I woke up with heartburn the last morning and I have had it pretty much every morning since then. It feels like there is still food in my throat when I drink or eat. Most of the day I don’t even notice it but it’s especially irritating in the morning.

I have quit smoking for a week and just got over strep throat (which also started after last weekend). Is all of this linked somehow? I have never had consistent problems with heartburn.
