What exactly is "heartburn"?

[Please_dont_ban_me]

Yes, yes I know www.google.com.

But I've been a little sick the past day or so. My stomach feels like it's cramping up, and when I burp I get this awful smell in my mouth. Like food in my stomach is rotting. Is there a name for this?

Huh?

I don't mean when I eat. I mean in general. Like I got up this morning, and as soon as I got out of bed I could feel it. I didn't eat too much the night before either...and nobody else in my family had problems with it.

Ya, but I have y food everyday. I'm Pakistani...that's how we do.

It's really annoying b/c it doesn't get any better until I puke. So this time I just enduced vomiting myself to spare myself another few hours of pain.

You might have an STD...(inside joke )

My guess is that you smoke too much.

Son of a ... how'd you know that?

I was actually thinking that. I had about 4 cigs almost back to back to back. I didn't feel anything going to sleep though, slept like a baby.

[Please_dont_ban_me]

Dude, I remember everything posted in this damn forum. You once said after the bball GTG that you played ty because you had become a smoker. And the other day you said you wanted to blaze it up with Mouse. Those are good indications that you are a smoker. This is why you have that burning feeling.

You think so? There's a link between smoking and this?

I need to quit then. This ty feeling is not something to look forward to. And I'm impressed you remember that . Are you in SA? You should come to one of the bball meets sometime.

if you keep on gettin it, you should go see ur doctor, thats what happen to me, i cant explain it in general how it happens, but when i was overseas, i kept on gettin heartburns after i eat, then there were times i couldnt breathe so the doctor gave me this that helps the food digest, something to do with fo'shizzle acid.

Try an antacid like Tums or Pepto...if it persists, definitely see a doctor. If it's acid reflux, it could destroy your eso us and all that good stuff. Plus, it sucks.

I'd go see your doc anyway. It is possible that your digestive tract has (temporarily) stopped moving. (Happened to me once)

It usually clears itself up in a day or so. So why see the doc? (1) Just in case it doesn't, and (2) he/she might be able to deduce what it was that caused it in the first place (many possibilities).

[ShoogarBear]

It could be gastroeso eal reflux or peptic ulcer disease. Smoking doesn't help. Something like over-the-counter Pepcid or Zantac may help, but for someone your age, I'd suggest seeing a doctor.

Yeah y food does it sometimes... But if you're used to it, then that's not the cause of it.
