heartburn

Avatar f tn I have started having severe heartburn in my throat and esophagus and am asking if the accumulative drops can be causing the severe heartburn ? Thanks for any information about this.
Avatar f tn I was sick for Two weeks before diagnosed . One evening I got horrible heartburn and now again last night after eating a few crackers. I am on my 6 th day of the prev Pac. I have gained most of my appetite back and the growling and gnawing is gone. I noticed a few months back that I was having pain in the center of my back and radiating to my upper shoulders mainly on the right side. To my surprise I was having this pain last evening before the heartburn started.

1273473 tn?1270775840 Yes, absolutely. About 3-4 months into treatment, I had heartburn and gerd. Have been taking Nexium and very helpful. I am on the 40mg in the morning and helping. I was also coughing, which I attribute to Riba and gerd. Another SX that will pass. Hope you feel better.
Avatar f tn Have you looked at the signs and symptoms of GERD or GORD. This is chronic reflux which causes heatburn and gas. Increased stomach acid after eating exacerbates symptoms as does the sleeping position. Usually the GP will prescribe PPI's like Omeprazole. If you aint happy taking meds, try some lifestyle changes. Google GERD and GORD though and you'll get some good info.
1496859 tn?1304515434 ) but they do not know what chiari or syrnx is, they have never heard of it so they guessed a really bad case of heartburn and gave me more meds, ....great, or not.... Is there a connection between Chiari/syrinx and heartburn or could this be b/c of all the pain meds I am taking? or is there something else that causes this? Is this heartburn??
Avatar m tn I had better and less mucus, but everytime I ate little outside of the menu everything was same and now almost every product I consume causes these symptoms even breathing difficulties. It seems that every year there's another product on the list that I cannot eat ( like allergic reactions ) Until today my nutritional variety is very low. And somehow I manage to eat and to be in shape.

Avatar f tn Hello. I have had severe heartburn and difficulty with swallowing for many years and finally went to a GI doctor who did an EGD. During the scope, my esophagus was torn and the MD was unable to view my entire esophagus. I went in for a second scope after my esophagus rested and a biopsy was taken (and I recieved another small tear). It was determined that I have Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EE).
Avatar f tn By all means, get a second opinion in regards to your treatment and do a lot of research and reading. You might also be interested in checking out the complementary medicine forum here on MH. There are a lot of ideas that may be of help to you.
Avatar f tn t make enough hydrochloric acid or digestive enzymes and your symptoms stem from that. Take a look at some of the symptoms caused by low stomach acid.
924817 tn?1244034409 I still have GI symptoms, I tried to quit taking the Prilosec and am still having heartburn without it. Still having some belly cramping and diarrhea though it seems to be improving. Still sensitive to heat and sun. The good news is, I am no longer short of breath with mild exertion. The color has returned to my face, and I recently walked 10 miles in a day. I can do yardwork again without swooning. My hair loss has slowed down, and my hair actually seems to be filling in again.
Avatar f tn I know anxiety impacts our stomachs and digestive tracts, but not sure it causes heartburn. Have you tried things like Tums to help with the heart burn? Have you addressed this with your doctor? You truly need to "accept" that your heart is fine. I know it's hard to do this, but this constant worry and fear is fueling your anxiety and keeping it going strong. Heartburn is easily treated, you should see your doctor regarding this, and for peace of mind. Take care.
Avatar m tn Obesity Pregnancy Smoking Spicy, citrus, and tomato-based foods To rule out GERD a physician may need to perform additional tests on patients who report symptoms of heartburn that worsen at night or when lying down. A ph study, barium x-ray, and upper endoscopy are common tests physicians used to diagnose GERD. The diagnosis is confirmed when the medications designed to suppress the production of stomach acid and reduces a patient's symptoms.
1101860 tn?1258542188 Hi, If you do not smoke or if you are not taking any medications, differentials that need to be ruled out are infection, allergies, heartburn and asthma. Your medical history and complete physical examination are initially done by your doctor. And depending on the results, additional tests may be done.Chest x-ray or blood tests will help rule out infection while pulmonary tests are needed to rule out asthma. Talk to your doctor about this and do keep us posted.
Avatar f tn I am just not sure if these are two separate issues and just coincidentally occur at the same time or if one problem causes the other one to occur. There are no other symptoms besides reflux symptoms (feeling of wanting to vomit, bitter taste in the mouth, worse heartburn when lying down). No bloody stools, no abdominal pain, watery stools (very watery like peeing) up to 3X/day. I would appreciate any advice.
