You should call your doctor and tell them you are in LOTS OF PAIN. They should be able to get you in now. If not, see another doctor. Pain is telling you something is not right and to get help. You may need pepsid or something like it. However it may be something more serious. Don't wait 3 weeks.

Tina, I would call the doctor's office and tell someone about the pain and what you have done that relieves it. Does tums help? Does sitting up help? Does a swallow of milk help? Does water help? I don't think I would be comfortable waiting 3 weeks. I hope you get some relief soon. God Bless.<><

I also got sever burning in my tummy at night. My dr. gave a prescription for Pepcid and I take one each night before bed. That seems to resolve the problem. I would call and ask you doctors office if they could give you a prescription for some and try it. If it helps great, if not.. call the doc. and tell him you NEED to see him NOW
