drink a glass of whole milk and dont eat spicy foods. rolaids work for me, a few at a time, tums doesnt, but nothing kills my heartburn faster than a big glass of whole milk, and i get heartburn often and bad, specially after pizza.

The first thing you should do is make an appointment to see your doctor and cardiologist, as heart problems and reflux problems can be similar. Then once cleared go about prescription antacids or otc ones. Tums work for quick temporary relief

I agree with Mike. See a doctor! If you've never had it before and now it is chronic, your body is telling you something is wrong.

when my body tells me something is wrong, i ignore it, maybe one day i wont wake up lmao!
Mike and JP are right. Unless you've radically changed your diet in the last 2 weeks, something other than simple heartburn is a definitely possibility.
Have you had heartburn before? When I had an inflamed gallbladder I was diagnosed with heartburn and didn't know any better. However, there's acid reflux, and a whole range of other things it could be and I'd really have a doctor check it out.

My really good friend has heartburn from spicy and greasy foods and has had the problem all his life. He was never diagnosed and chooses to just ignore it and keep eating that stuff. He's also probably 80 pounds over weight...
Forum health advise is never the way to go...even on the doctor sites. If you had a rash on your junk for two weeks...you know damn well you'd be seeing a doctor, why not give your stomach and heart the same respect. Lmao!

Im the same way.
Everytime I go do the doctor I feel stupid telling her all my problem.
Whats the point if she not going to help. Maybe I need to find a new doctor but I have been going there since I was 10 years old.

About 2 weeks ago I had a Michelada beer at a mexican restaurants, After that the Heartburn keeps coming. I love spicy food. Everything I eat I make it spicy. Im not a fan of greasy foods or fried food.
I had my gallbladder check out in 2008 and it was all good. Did not need to remove it.
I did change my diet. Oatmeal and coffee for breakfast and maybe a salad for lunch (If i feel like it).
Thanks for all the good info. I see a doctor in my furture. Maybe she can check out this rash on my finger. I was thinking it was from smoking but I have not had a cigarette in months. weird.

THIS, do this Glen
i buried a lifelong friend two weeks ago. he had the same symptoms for only 2 days.
procrastination cost him his life.
were not talking about a leaking oil filter adapter, this isnt the time to procrastinate
DO NOT latch onto this comment as a form of diagnosis.
i was afraid of just this ocurring, and BAM you did.
you dont need to see a doctor in "the future", seriously glen.
hopefully we're wrong, but if we're not... it would be terribly sad to bury you as well my friend.
Just GO, go today, or tomorrow.
worse case, we're wrong... your diet change caused this.
if we're not wrong, TIME IS WASTING, crucial time.
GO!

My thoughts too Mike. Coffee is not a dietary supplement. I frown at the chippies that NEED coffee or a HUGE energy drink every morning to wake up. I have never drank coffee before and despise energy drinks. Pepsi is my guilty pleasure, but one a day tops, usually water when I'm at home.
