You need to modify your diet. Bad heartburn is normal. Cut out the fat. All of it. See your doctor ASAP. You could have liver or pancreatic problems.

Different drugs work differently on differnet people.\nPrilosec may work for you but not for someone else.\nAre you a Prilosec drug rep or something?\n\nI find a better cure is using apple cider vinegar cut with some water.  It takes care of heartburn and acid reflux almost immediately.

Calcium (Ca+), which is in Tums antacid tablets. I also tried calcium supplemets, and they worked quite well too. I usually feel acid reflux when I overeat at night, or have citrus fruits or fried foods at night. So simply avoiding those situations for a few days will work miracles, and you don't have to strain your body with excessive medications.

I have suggested many of the following natural treaments for cold with great success. \n\nAmp up on Vitamin C and Zinc. Drink a glass of hot green tea with Echinacea and Honey in the morning.\n\nEat only fruits and vegatables during the day plus avoid mucous creating foods such as milk, bread and cheese. Fast from eating meat as your digestive system needs to be ridding itself of toxins and meat will slow down the process. Avoid refined sugar in sugary drinks.\n\nAdd a tablespoon of raw unfiltered apple cider vinegar, cinnamon, and one or two drops of wild oregeno oil to a glass of apple juice, pomogranete juice or grape juice three times a day. Add cayenne if you have mucous in your chest, eyes, ears, nose or throat. Drink six glasses of distilled water each day. Drink three glasses of clean water with 1/4 tablespoon of unrefined sea salt.\n\nDrink a glass of hot Green tea with Echinacea and Honey in the evening with Camomile and take a hot bath before you go to bed. Sit in a bathtub with hot water. Add a cup of apple cider vinegar and a tablespoon cayenne. Sweat out the toxins and go to sleep.\n\nAll sickness comes from the gut. By alkalizing your body and cleansing you will not only cure your cold but also give your body, gut, and skin a wonderful treat.\nSource(s):

...Check with the doc to see if you have acid reflux....you can go the natural healing route, which would be to alter your lifestyle and some of your food choices. Cut back on caffeine, acidic foods, wine/alcohol, hot spicy--and eat more alkaline foods, no smoking. There is a natural seaweed called Bladder Wrack that will cauterize stomach ulcers if you have any...better and longer lasting than tagamet...

Sometimes, when I eat very dry foods eg rice, it literally gets stuck in my chest, so I have to drink and make sure I take tiny bits and eat slow.   Acid reflux actually causes that feeling you mention...food or acid actually pushes up, opens the flap of your esophogus and food rises up.\n\nTry to eat less salty foods, foods with less preservatives, cut out pop and coffee and eat smaller meals and lots more plain cooked veggies and fresh fruit.  Avoid foods that cause you acid reflux.  For me GRAVY is the worst.  I don't get heartburn often but when I do it stays for hours.  \n\nI actually take a spoonful of vinegar, chase it down with water and it cures my heartburn better than any medication can.  Try and see if that helps.  Avoid lying down after eating.  If you can go for a walk and allow your food to digest.  \n\nI dont' know what to suggest as I know a lot of people that have acid reflux and nothing seems to help.  They do however eat a lot of the wrong types of foods which I think is a major cause.  Cut the spices and rich sauces out and have yogurts and soya milk and more healthier food choices and see if it makes a difference.  I know my body FEELS and thanks me when I give it good nutritious food! LOL

I get heartburn easily too. Eat smaller meals, and eat less spicey or fried foods. Take soda (carbonated water, not Coke or Pepsi) with your meal. \n\nKeep a box of acid-relief tablets in your car in case your need them after dining out.\n\nIf this is a problem that occurs mostly at night then eat early. Give your body time to digest food before you go to bed. Also try tilting your bed upwards by placing a brick under each leg on the end that you have your head. This keeps the content of your stomach away from your oesophagus.

If you are into herbal remedies, I'd suggest willow bark tea.    Really works wonders.  I don't know the recipe, otherwise I would give it to you, but it does work well.

Heartburn is also called acid reflux. It is caused by acid from the stomach running back up the esophagus. It isn't a symptom of a heart attack.
