Indigestion for over a week
Posted , 6 users are following.
Occasionally over a period of time when swallowing a drink, usually tea, I would get a severe pain in the centre of my chest which would gradually pass. Last week I had it again but since then I have got constant indigestion which is mixture of a feeling of burning or severe hungar in my stomach and a feeling of something being in the centre just below my ribs. Any thoughts anyone please.

Sorry for your problem and I really wish I could help you solve the mystery. There are a few simularties, the chest pain, the indigestion, and always being hungry, all line up with my problem. However, my problem, when it comes on is very pronounced, and seems to come on mostly when eating out. I first thought an alergic reaction to MSG possibly in the food; but upon questing the owners and cooks, they did not use MSG. However I have now had it occur when eating a meal at home. It normally comes on after the hickups and is so strong that I can't even speak. One of the last attacks (abbout 4 hours in length) caused us to get ready for a trip to the Emergency Room (about 50 miles away), but just about the time we were ready to walk out the door, it eased. Following these attacks, I can resume eating, and have no lasting effects from the attack. Hope you can solve your mystery.

Thanks for the reply; but have been to doctors almost continously, 4 out of the past 5 days. They have me on 40 MG of Nexium twice a day and no attacks since going on this regiment; however, I really wonder what the long term effect on my overall health will be with such a strong dose of these meds will be.
