I took mine with food for 5 days, twice a day. It's only today that the heartburn, central chest pains and the feeling of needing to burp all the time. I was prescribed naproxen for neck pain but if I'm honest I'd rather have the neck pain then the heartburn I'm having right now.
I suffer from health anxiety so having chest pains makes my anxiety worse!!
Hope you all feel better soon .
