Severe Heartburn Symptoms

Q.Severe heartburn and or acid reflux for several days!? I have been having terrible heartburn or acid reflux for over 3 days now. I have taken tums, rolaids, pepto bismo, everything. It is such a severe burning in my esophages that I can't even sleep! (I have been propping my pillow up at night, not laying flat) I have always had mild heartburn and been able to control this, and I haven't eaten anything different. What's going on? Could it be something worse?

A.I get awful heartburn from another medicine I take. I am on a prescription that is wonderful for acid reflux. It's called Nizatidine. Check with your doctor about it. http://www.gianteagle.com/healthnotes/dr.. Or I think that you should try Prilosec OTC One thing you may not have tried and is usually effective within a minute or two; a pickle..It is not common but there are people who do not produce enough stomach acids.. the symptom is; heartburn. If this is the case, all the anti acids are only aggaravating the condition. This condition is more common in the older generation. When everything is slowing down.
