Heartburn Help?I have GERD and I've been having excruciating heartburn lately, despite being on Nexium 40mg 2xday, and eliminating all food/drink triggers from my diet. I've tried the usual dairy/milk to help ease the pain, but nothing works. At this point, I am taking pepto bismol, which isn't very effective, either. I've also tried other acid-reducers (mylanta, etc.) to no avail. What can I do to beat the pain? I am having an endoscopy done at the end of January to help figure out what's going on ... just trying to make things as comfortable as possible until then. Thank you!

This tastes terrible, but I know it works...I had the worst case of heartburn I'd ever had in my life last summer while visiting my parents.
My dad has heartburn all the time, and he told me to drink vinegar.
Just pour about 1/4 to 1/2 a coffee cup of straight vinegar, and drink it FAST (chug it!) In just a few minutes, you'll feel fine!
It upset my stomach at first for about 10 min. but then I felt great.
** good luck!

I rarely get heartburn, but Tums is what works for me - almost instantly. It's also a great way to get a little extra calcium in my diet. Hope this helps, but it certainly can't hurt.
