Heartburn- :-(

I have been having the worst case of heartburn ever for the past week or so. It's sad to say I didn't know what it was until I told my mom the symptoms. I've been trying all remedies, including changing my diet but, now I've had to start using TUMS.

I've never had this problem in my life and didn't experience it with DD.

Have any of you had similar issues with heartburn?

  • Tums helps, but I find that Pepcid works better.
  • I've always had problems with heartburn if I wasn't eating right. But it doesn't matter if I eat good or bad I still get awful heartburn so I started taking Zantac because tums don't do anything. Works like a freakin charm : )
  • I take a Zantac early every morning. Haven't had a problem since, even after spicy foods.
  • i didnt up until last week.  i find that chewing minty gum helps settle it without taking tums.  i might have to break down and buy a bottle tonight.  i am losing my battle with ballpark nachos i had last night.  ouchie. 
  • YES today being one of those days, and what do i do to make it better? i have chocolate! Embarrassed 

    maybe one day ill learn

  • yep...it wakes me up ...it sucks. I'm on Zantac twice a day and it helps TREMENDOUSLY.
  • Ditto! I've never had heartburn in my life until now and it's been so consistant the past few weeks that tums isn't even cutting it anymore - or should I say I can't handle chewing that many a day - so I've now turned to zantac for relief!

    Sometime I swear all I have to do is open my eyes and I'm belching and then the heartburn sets it! Good luck!
