acid reflex heartburn

42 yrs old female with hypothyroid been on 150mg synthroid now for 3 years never had hearburn but for the past few months i have been getting heartburn but not from eating I get like a acid burn when I dont eat the only way to make it better is to eat something it seems to be getting worse for the past week i wake up in the middle of the night with it burning and have to make a half of sandwich to calm it down. Is this heartburn or is it something else. I just never heard any one getting heartburn from an empty stomach?
