See MD: Pregnant? Always to be considered, if you have been having sex. May have inflammation of stomach, ulcer, inflammation of esophagus, reflux of stomach content into esophagus. This is aggravated by mints, coffee, alcohol, some meds, fatty foods, and other factors. Could be another cause. Need to see md, get examined.
