I suffer from it horribly.
It's a common side effect from a medication that I take and years ago I was given a pepcid prescription. I stopped taking the pepcid prescription when I found that zantax works 100% better, but now even zantax isn't working anymore. I'm taking at least one/day but more often two. It's gotten really bad. I have an appointment Thursday AM with my doctor because I am so fed up with it. I don't even have to eat anything acidic and I get heartburn, it's really frustrating. I try to avoid acidic foods as much as possible, but that doesn't even make a difference anymore. I've tried eating much smaller meals throughout the day thinking perhaps I was waiting too long between meals to eat, but I've had no luck with that either.
Anyone have any home remedies that help heartburn? I know about the baking soda one, but I can't stomach it at all. Anything is helpful at this point and I'm willing to try just about anything.
