Difference between heartburn and indigestion
Common Questions and Answers about Difference between heartburn and indigestion
heartburn
Kinda like a burning sensation. Indigestion is more like a sharp pain right between your ribs, and sometimes shoots into your back, and it is usually accompanied by heartburn as well.
All I know is indigestion was so painful for me. Tums are my best friend!!
t always easy to determine the difference between indigestion and heart trouble. In my case, taking a nitro pill is my test. If the chest discomfort disappears or eases, I tend to think it is cardiac. In the past couple of years I've had three different chest/thorax area discomfort. I had a bowel obstruction, the pain was sharp and unending, and became worse with movement (surgery fixed it).
I can't ever remember a time when I've had indigestion. I can eat anything and it's never bothered me. For the past 2 days i've had the most horrible indigestion. No matter what I eat I have it . Really don't know if this has to do with pregnancy, but since I've never expereinced it before I thought it might. Does anyone know if it is related?
Typically, I eat bran cereal or an egg sandwich for breakfast.
My symptoms are: tired all the time, don't feel "normal," memory weirdness (foggy), fingers, wrists (bones) hurt, need naps, forgetful, decrease in libido, thinning hair, and chronic headaches. My doctor said that since my thryoid test came back normal that I should't worry about parathyroid problems. Any answers would be appreciated. I feel like I am going CRAZY!

Hello I have been having really bad heartburn and indigestion before bed and it's causing me not to be able to sleep. I've noticed peanut butter is a very bad cause and have stopped eating it as much as I was and not before bee. I've tried drinking water and milk as well before sleeping but it doesn't seem to help. Any suggestions?
After two months of mononucleosis, I got symptoms suggestive of indigestion (after heavy meals, pain moving around my stomach). I noticed increased burping throughout the previous month. I did an abdominal ultrasound - nothing out of the ordinary. After 10 days of stomach pain/gas/bloating/burping despite a GERD-compliant diet, my GP prescribed PPIs (once daily) and enzymes.
I have been taking prilosec daily and I try to be very careful with my diet. This makes a big difference in how I feel .
The GI doc I saw at standford medical center for this mentioned that raising the head of the bed about 5 inches by putting blocks or something under whatever supports it can help a lot also.
Oh my god it sounds like your having a bloody awful time! I've had trouble with sleeping due to heartburn and indigestion too so I know how you feel with that one....it's absolute hell. How many weeks are you now...Hope you havnt got long left?
Before being pregnant I've never had heartburn or anything like it. The past few days every time I eat, my chest starts hurting. Sometimes accompanied with a burning. Is this normal? I'll be 10 weeks tomorrow.

I am having twins so started with heartburn and indigestion many weeks ago. I take Zantac 150mg morning and night and my dr gave me a script for protonics. And yet, I still take tums at night time to sleep. I have to really watch my diet and not eat anywhere from 3-4 he prior to bedtime ( which ***** cause I always go to hungry). I placed pillows under the head of my mattress between the mattress and box springs and that part does help. But I have yet to find 100% relief.
I am 21 weeks and have day in and day out the worst heartburn/acid indigestion ever. Nothing seems to be working and my doctor told me to take liquid mylanta or maylox. I went looking for both of them and couldn't find either. When I came home and googled them it seems that they have been taken off the market. Is there anything else that is safe to take....anything that will give me any relief at all???
