Its keeping me up at night, and today i cant stop puking acid. If i take tums, that comes up too. I cant eat or drink, I can only cope on sucking on ice cubes.. I dont know what to do anymore!!

    Ask your doc about some kind of meds to help. Mine gave me one

    Try milk! I know you said you are throwing up, but i have the same thing! Up all night! You can also try zantac... or... if brave, some apple cider vinegar! Take a shot and even though its gross it actually helps! Another is chewing mint gum, tricks your stomach into digesting and it will start to break down acid. I chew gum every day all day! Hope you find some relief! You are not in a fun spot right now!

    @life I read that milk will make it worse.. it only relieves it for a certain amount of time but then it comes biting you in the @$$ lol.. I have to leave for work in an hour.. I want to break down and cry i wont survive this hunger or pain. I heard mint is bad too cause its spicy.. Seems like nothing in the world can cure it.

    My heat burn is a killer. I drink milk and use tums both really help. Hope you feel better.

    Nothing works for me either. I feel like I'm dying its so bad! My mil said ginger helps. Just eat a piece of it so I'm having her bring me some.

    Try a teaspoon of mustard.

    I use target brand tums, they are my bestfriend & imo better than tums brand.

    My doc prescribed me protonics two weeks ago, it took like 4 days for it to work well, but I was taking Prevacid before and it did nothing. I now only need an occasional find.

    Zantac works!!
  • lalalorreelalalorree

    @OregonMama will it still foam in your system? I hate throwing that crap up lol

    Zantac was a life saver during my pregnancy.
  • BentleysMommyBentleysMommy
    Zantac was about 8 to 10 for a box. But your doctor can also prescribe a generic brand so you don’t have to pay for it.
  • lalalorreelalalorree
    Does zantac work as temporary relief like tums or does it try and cure it

    @gatorbob Yep! That's what I have! Haha. Zantc was the pnly way I was able to sleep during my 3rd trimester.

    I use Maalox and it's instant relief for me... I usually just put the bottle to my head and take a sip and im good immediately after.

    Milk helps me initially and then comes back as burps later. Recently I've found McDonald's vanilla milkshake is my magic cure!

    Papaya enzymes :)
  • lilbit01_209lilbit01_209
    Prilosec and gaviscon... and 'eat to puke' which was pretty much finding the foods that I could throw up without having the acid taste/feeling....
  • YAYAYAYA
    It's okay, just have to watch what I take and eat. @oregonmama
