    Heartburn!!! AHHH!!!!!

    I have never really been one to get hearburn alot, but since I started this WOL, its been off and on. I know you can't take pepto or chewables, so once I drank a little cream and that helped a little but I dont' want to do that all the time. Anyone have any ideas???
    What would we do without it?

    Re: Heartburn!!! AHHH!!!!!

    Wow, that's surprising. My heartburn went completely away in this WOE. I used to take a pepcid complete per day just to keep it under control. And sometimes I'd have tums in between doses.

    Whenever I didn't have that available I'd drink a big glass of water and that seemed to help too.

    Maybe you have an intolerance to some sort of food you're eating. Take them out one at a time to see what it might be. Sodas will give me heartburn almost immediately after I drink them, so it's easier for me to leave them completely alone. When I drink alot of caffeine in tea, that'll do it to me too.

            Try some plain sparkiling mineral water (seltzer) or soda water. I get heartburn/indigestion after eggs or salmon, and this simple cure gets rid of it. Just a glass after the meal. But remember, it is in addition to the normal water.

              I find water helps my heartburn too, I used to think milk did it but then I eralized that HAD to be all in my head! Milk won't get rid of heartburn!!!!! Water does!

                Pepto bismol also comes in swallowable capsules, I don't see why those wouldn't be allowed?
