Please answer this. Is it pain you feel in your chest and throat, or burning? I have acid reflux and I also have esophageal spasms which are very painful. So before I can answer any more, I need to know the answer to my question if you want a proper response.
Well you probably do but i don’t think its because you overweight
you can take these following over the counter meds it helps cure ulcers and helps with acid reflux
pepcid
nexium
prilesac
good luck
Your weight could have a factor in the situation but anyone can have acid reflux. I have acid reflux really bad and I take Prilosec OTC and it works wonders. You might want to give it a try. Feel better.
I’ve had acid reflux since I was a little kid, and I’m a freaking stick…so you being overweight isn’t the reason why you have it..although the foods you eat that contribute to your weight also probably contribute to the acid reflux, if you have it.
What problems are you having exactly?
You’ve gotta explain your symptoms more. Like alot of people get heartburn…I’ve actually only experienced heartburn once for 3 days. Usually I just feel really nauseous, especially at night. When I was younger I used to throw up all the time.
When I had that heartburn, I went to my doctor and she told me to take Prilosec, it’s otc so you can try that. I had to take that for a few months to clear up my heartburn and my nightly tummy aches..while I was taking it I stopped eating everything I wasnt supposed to be eating; spicy foods, citrusy foods, greasy foods, chocolate, caffeine, etc. …not drinking caffeine is the worst! But…go look up a list of what you shouldnt eat, and try staying away from that stuff for a while and see if your symptoms clear up.
