I can only share what worked for my Dad in a similar instance. He thought he was having a heart attack, and it was only gas. He went to the hospital, like you, only to find out it was just gas. From then on, he would go to a convenience store, and buy an eight ounce Coke, in a glass bottle. He would drink it, burp like crazy,and feel like a new man from then on. They told him at the hospital not to eat slaw, or cabbage of any kind. If you have pain, you might want to go to the hospital, but a small Coke helped him. Good Luck!!

Yes, i've experienced this type of ache previously and with that form of severity, i'd advocate going to your health care professional and have him/her run an higher GI series on you. You could have a peptic ulcer and could require medication as a way to hinder additional injury to your belly and esophagus. Meanwhile, try taking Gaviscon throughout the episodes to relieve the burning on your belly in case you have these variety of episodes. Excellent good fortune.

You shouldn't, unless it's an intense form of heartburn. my mom has chronic heartburn, and still gets it once and a while even when on prilosec. call your doctor and schedule another appointment...it's probably more serious than you think.

go back to the doctor and talk to him again. You might also ask to be referred to a dietician or see one on your own because it may be something in your diet causing that. don't make the mistake of using too many anti-acids to try to stop that because a close friend of mind died from too many anti-acids!!

See a medical doctor with this question. You want to make sure that your first diagnosis was correct or not.

Sounds to me that you are stressed about something. What is on your heart that has you paining?
