1. I woke up at 3:30 this morning with heartburn.

I hadn't had it in a really long time. I think it was all the popcorn and Diet Coke I had at the movies.

2. Have you had yourself thoroughly checked out?

I developed acid reflux disease when I was 34 years old. I had none of the predisposing factors: I didn't smoke, didn't drink much, wasn't overweight and in fact pretty thin. But I have a family history. Long story short, I have lived that misery and am at present free of heartburn. One thing, though: the Nexium ads will tell you that persistent heartburn can be more than just heartburn. It's true. Have it checked out if you haven't already.

5. It might be.

Acid reflux disease can cause heart arhythmias and palpitations, even asthma. This probably isn't what you're talking about though. I do wish you well.

6. I laid off the coffee and the alcohol and my acid reflux disappeared

I only get it when I drink either of the above...so I only enjoy them once in a while, now.

7. Yuk!

I had a gall bladder attack at the movies yesterday. Not heartburn, but also unpleasant!

8. Kleeb!

Wow... nice to see you around again!

I used to get heartburn even if I'd only eaten bread and water... or nothing at all. Then I found Nexium. :)

10. Hey been back for a few days

I haven't ate much at all really not because I dont like eating but because I had some teeth removed and its hurt to eat a few days after the fact.
