Heartburn: R u taking any meds for the heartburn like antacids/h2 blockers (zantac)/ ppis (prilosec/prevacid)? R u avoiding food triggers: acidic/spicy/fatty/greasy foods, alcohol, caffeine? R u obese? Do u lie down soon after eating? See your pcp to discuss these issues & start treatment. May need endoscopy to determine severity of irritation.
