Question:
I think I'm having heartburn, what should I do?
It started this morning after I ate a hard-boiled egg and a piece of chocolate for breakfast. Then my chest started burning, and it hurt a ton! I googled it, and is sounded like heartburn, so I took a Tums. It helped very quickly but then after a few minutes, the pain came back. Later on, I took two more Tums, a spoonful of ice cream, an apple, and a cracker (based on some internet remedy). The Tums helped some, but when I started eating the food, it came back. Then I took a glass of water with a teaspoon of baking soda in it. This helped for about 30-60 minutes. So then I felt well enough to have some lasagna, but I wasn't able to finish it because when I eat, the burning comes back. What should I do? What can I eat? I've been in pain for almost 10 hours now! And it's driving me crazy, lying down makes it worse, so I can't even sleep.

Perhaps ginger ale might help.
Try to avoid those activities and foods which you think can induce symptoms of your heartburn. Try diet modifications by reducing intake of fatty foods, caffeinated beverages, chocolates and alcohol. Avoid eating large meals, try to eat 5-6 small meals during the day to prevent gastric pressure that induces reflux, Try to chew food thoroughly. If it persists and continues to give you discomfort, see your doctor to get proper treatment.
