Heartburn :-(

[keaij]

I have had heartburn for the last 2 hours, is there anything I can take besides tums, I dont ave any and its 1 am over here I dont wanna go out. I have been drinking water but wow. Its really really bad :-(

Bread can also help! I used to drink milk every time I had heartburn but then it started to backfire and I got it worse!!! My advise is stock up on tums!!! I used to hate the taste of tums and would refuse to take them but its the fastest way to get rid of it!! I have gone through so many tums that I now can tollorate the taste!!!

Can Drinking Milk Help My Heartburn?
You may have heard that drinking a glass of milk can relieve heartburn. While it's true that milk can temporarily buffer stomach acid, nutrients in milk, particularly fat, will stimulate the stomach to produce more acid.

Even though milk might not be a great heartburn remedy, however, it's a rich source of bone-building calcium. Try fat-free skim milk and don't overdo it. Drink no more than 8 ounces of skim milk at a time -- as a snack in between meals. Overfilling the stomach may increase heartburn.

A tbls of baking soda in 4 onces of water it works so fast.. But it is high in salt so don't always rely on it
