Acid Reflex Disease aka Heart burn

[Taya17]

I get it every once in a while....mostly from spicy foods and a lot of Soda. Does anyone else get like this too? WHen the heart burn kicks in for me my chest starts to hurt like no tomorrow and it feels like I can't breathe even though I can....it's weird really.

Ohh I get heart burn too, when I eat hot cheetos, ugh. Other than that I eat all spicy foods with no effects.

I get that usually when I eat greas foot the chug a water..Not sure how that started LOL.

Me too. Anything spicy. I think I'm a little young to have heart burn though... depending on others' opinions, maybe not.

Over the counter antacids should help, but ask your parents before you take any. If your heartburn is really bad, or you're getting acid reflux a lot, you probably should see a doctor as there could be an underlying problem.

Only time I had heartburn was when I was pregnant with my kids. It hurt sooo bad. When I ran out of the heartburn meds I would make myself a glass of water with some baking soda in it. It taste nasty as heck but you will be burping up so much you will be relieved quickly! (wink)

I sometimes get heartburn from super spicy things or really tomatoey things, or if I drink wayyy too much soda.

If that happens, I go straight for an antacid, usually tums; a friend of mine swears they don't work, but for me they do and they always have. But only the "chalky" kind; the chewy ones don't do anything for my heartburn. -.-

i always get heartburn i trick my mother used to tell me to get rid of it was to use Peppermint oil and sniff it for a few minutes, also Peppermint tea i think does the same thing. Mylanta the one that comes in the pink bottle works really well and Pepcid for gastro esophageal reflux disease also works really well.

I find that staying away from fried foods and like wolf said soda or anything that has a acidy fizz to it.
