HEARTBURN! It's killing me and it won't go away.

Anyone else have trouble with heartburn? I started getting it every day around 3 pm, now I just have it constantly all day and I take protonix (have doubled and tripled my dose) and rolaids and tums and nothing is touching it.  I am a little concerned, how does that stomach acid get back up that six feet of intestines and to my esophagus?

How long has this been happening? It doesn't sound normal . CAll Dr. Huangs office now and get it checked out!!! Err on the side of caution.

Hi  Kelly   you need to call  Dr Haung office.  

It could be an ulcer causing all the pain.

I  get a little gas once in a while a lot of burping   and   gas x will take care of it.  it is usually when my pouch is  empty for a long time.   

If it lasted more than a day or two or came back i would call  Dr Haungs office

I see  Dayna on the  30 th and the pa to.

HI Patty,

I have not found out what is causing it yet. My PCP is scheduling me to have an endoscopy hopefully this week. She changed my med to an over the counter type and it is helping, I still get indigestion every time I eat, but it goes away after awhile. Not like before it was constant.
