Common Questions and Answers about Heartburn symptoms weight loss

heartburn

Avatar m tn After doing that for about a week, I started having symptoms of heartburn - usually upon awakening and during the morning hours; it usually subsides by noon. When I eat during this time, I often feel the food going down the esophagus with some discomfort at times. My question is this - could this be a symptom of hypothyroidism/hyperthyroidism or related in any way to me taking half the dosage of levothyroxine? How should I proceed?
Avatar n tn Burping which occurs with other symptoms like pain, heartburn, nausea, a decreased appetite, or weight loss may be associated with a serious cause. Take light food. Avoid fried spicy food. A clinical examination is must for correct diagnosis and management. I hope it helps. Best wishes and kind regards!
Avatar m tn When I workout I mainly lift weights so I expect that I should gain weight rather than loose it right? The weight loss has been pretty drastic. A couple of months ago I was about 240ish pounds. Then I dropped down to 225 pounds. At that time I wasnt really eating, as I didnt have an appetite. Then, I was making my self eat. I would eat a lot as well. My weight would go up to about 227 pounds then go right back to 225. I went to the doctor because of this and he tested me for diabetes.
Avatar f tn At 6 weeks I was diagnosed with Hyperemesis gravidarum (HG) which is persistent vomiting, nausea, dehydration and weight loss and have been battling with it everyday since then (I'm 14wks, 4d now). I'm on IV's and a Zofran pump 24 hours a day! It's difficult.
Avatar n tn Pylori bacteria because I got it with similar symptoms to what you have stated but I have stopped smoking and I don’t consume alcohol but I am over weight, I had hard time swallowing food, heartburns, hard stool and soft stool after each other, unintended weight loss, vomiting the pain came nearly every three hours and it was calmed by eating.
Avatar f tn Have any of your spouses had any symptoms? My husband has been gaining weight and is breaking out on his shoulders... anyone else?
Avatar f tn Actually you're not really far from the norm. Check out a condition called "LPRD", which is related to GERD. Basically the acid doesn't stop at your chest, it goes up to the back of your throat, dousing the vocal chords along the way. Pain in the ears doesn't seem to be common, but I've felt it as well, so I know what you're going through.
Avatar f tn It's natural ... what's unnatural is to gain tons of weight since it's considered unhealthy. Sometimes you'll lose weight in the 1st trimester due to MS and also in the 3rd due to heartburn/ acid reflux and other symptoms. So don't fret especially if your doc haven't an issue with it. Instead take pride in it. I gained 17lbs so far and I'm 36 +2 and ive been suffering from a loss of appetite now due to acid reflux and heartburn.
Avatar n tn As for the weight loss / weight gain, I am unfortunately one of many who lose weight without the knowledge of how to keep it off. I sincerely wish to lose it again, but I cannot go to the gym with these symptoms. Any advise on what I should do would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time and attention. p.s I will be posting this query in multiple areas but that does not mean I value one forum's advise over another's.
Avatar f tn Hello ladies! I just want to know all the different symptoms you have had during your pregnacy??
Avatar n tn 60 pounds seems like a lot of weight to lose without trying. The rule of thumb for weight loss and blood cancer is 10% of your body weight within 6 months. As you mentioned, there can be a number of reasons for elevated eosinophils (allergies, medications, infections, parasites, etc). I would think a reasonable amount of time to recheck would be around 2-3 months. You mentioned that you had some other symptoms. Can you elaborate on that?
Avatar n tn Please insist that you be tested for Celiac disease. Weight loss and acid reflux are red flags for Celiac disease, as are the slow bowel movements. Celiac disease is where you are allergic to gluten, which is a protein in certain grains like wheat. It damages your small intestine and causes malnutrition and a wide range of symptoms. One friend had ONLY heartburn as a symptom, and she had an advanced case.
Avatar n tn Good luck with the weight loss...I wish I could lose weight also.As long as ur dr monitors ur weight loss I am sure u will be in good health soon. I agree with you that losing weight should help with the gerd symptoms...not sure if u can "cure" it tho. I have had issues for yrs and now that u mention this....my flares coinside with added weight. It could be that our clothes get tighter also.....
4364093 tn?1365869659 Hi, Kenziehutch! Sorry about your heartburn, which you suffered back a couple years ago. I suffer from acid reflux/heartburn horribly!! I have never experienced anything like this (especially with the recent feeling of vomit in my mouth and nose), waking up choking on my own vomit, it burning my throat and my ears, and this horrible "out of nowhere" gas and my upper belly has become large and hard...I know I have gained some weight, but this doesn't seem quite right!
Avatar m tn About four weeks ago, I started having mild heartburn symptoms at night, that were generally relieved by Zantac. About two weeks ago, I had a 24 hour type stomach virus that included vomiting and body aches, but no diarrhea. Following that episode, I had a consistent acid reflux problem that included upper chest and esophageal burning, as well as upper chest discomfort that would be relieved by changing position or belching.
Avatar m tn if everyday i use to drink lemon water, will i loss my weight ?
Avatar f tn These include not eating within two hours of going to bed, elevating the head of the bed, weight loss if you are overweight, etc..
Avatar n tn It is now late July, and ive been having this symptoms intermittently since April. I have loss of appetite, excessive belching, bloating, dizzyness (mostly when i'm standing), fatigue, and headaches. I have been losing weight slowly, i think its due to the loss of appetite that i am experiencing. I also have some pain on the bottom of my left rib cage (where the stomach is located), if i am in certain positions.
