Sounds like acid reflux or GERD. Years ago it used to be called heartburn, but the new milennium brings about new names for diseases.

Could be several things - most likely acid reflux. However, there are enough other possibilities that I would get a MD or a APN to look at you a lot depends on your age, habits, and what your stomach sounds like. So you need an exam

Your problem is too much acid in your digestive system. When sleeping, levate your head and upper body so the excess acid stays down. The immediate relief of frequent heartburn are like most everyone are answering: tums and other otc antacids. The trouble with these antacids is your heartburn will be recurring until you get to the root of the problem which is too much acid in your digestive system. The typical American diet is predominantly acidic except for most vegetables and fruits. Since most of us do not have a vegetarian diet, the next best thing to do to neutralize the acidity in our systems is to drink 8 glasses of water daily (preferably distilled water which has a pH of 7.0, in other words, it is alkaline). However, if you really want to alkalize your system faster and thus get rid of those frequent heartburns forever, you can mix Xtreme x2o (a coral calcium mineral complex, all natural and organic,with 70 trace minerals in a teabag satchet) which has a pH of 9.9 when mixed in distilled water. There is no other high quality beverage in the market today that offers the highest alkaline drink than Xtreme x2o.
For your info, frequent heartburns are only the tip of the iceberg of about 150 other degenerative diseases that are linked with increasing acidity of our digestive system. Research says that these degenerative diseases have a direct link to a highly acidic digestive system that has been so for many, many years.
If your long term health is important to you, wouldn't you want to know what your pH is through a saliva test? Wouldn't you want to have a pH that reads 7.45 or more, that means "alkaline" (opposite of "acidic", pH is below 7.0)? Wouldn't you want to find out more about getting your digestive system to become alkaline thru Xtreme x2o drink? If you answer yes to the above questions, check the following website:

Thank you for your query.

acid relux - or heartburn. try tums for immediate relief, or Pepsid, Zantac or Prilosec if it's a daily problem (all of which are over the counter). If it continues after trying medication, talk to your doctor.

That sounds like acid reflux disease. It can erode your esophagus and cause permanent damage. You should go to the Dr.
