Excessive and Burping - Is it heartburn?

by Kix, Jun 25, 2002 12:00AM
The last week or two I have been experiencing an excessive amount of burping and tightness in my diaphram.  Although I almost always feel bloated, it doesnt seem to matter whether i have eaten recently or not.  I have tried several small things, Tums, eating less, trying to eat different things, but nothing has really helped.  Im not really in any pain, but this feeling is definitly an annoyance.  Im a 20 year old hispanic male, and as far as I know, my family has no history of stomach problems such as this.  Is it heartburn or something else?  And what can i do to ease it?
