Anyone suddenly get bad heartburn from everything?

LaVitaBella

Anything I've eaten in the past two days causes pretty intense heartburn.  It's more annoying than anything.  Specifically chocolate is the worst trigger. We made cookies yesterday and I thought I was on fire after eating one.

I get bouts of really bad heartburn/acid reflux.  Anything with caffeine or anything acidic will do it.  But sometimes, even cold water will bring it on.  I start a 14 day treatment with OTC Prilosec and it goes away.

Thanks! Just what I needed to know.  I've been on Prilosec treatments before.

i get heartburn badly if I eat crap. if I eat healthy I don't get it. not sure if that's the way it's supposed to be, but I know if I eat something bad, or full of carbs, i'm in trouble.

Deb typically that's my problem, but this week it's everything.  Although that could say that everything I eat is crap....

The Prilosec helped me too.

chocolate is a common heartburn trigger.

I'm that way - sometimes i can't drink orange juice without horrible heartburn, and then sometimes I'm ok with it.  Lots of things can make that happen- meds you are on, stress, etc.

That's interesting because when I was PG with really bad heartburn the OB told me to eat carbs ( a lot of bread specifically) because they tend to soak up the acid. It worked, but it's funny how we're all so different:)

Oh and to the OP---since I had kids I get bouts of heartburn from time to time. Usually an OTC med helps me!

Yup. I never had heartburn before pregnancy but now I'm very susceptible to it.

I did last week - so random! Felt nothing like that since I was PG. Wine with seltzer brought it on.
