What am I experiencing? Is it an ulcer or acid reflux? ?
showernose asked:
I have never really had a problem with reflux, but a few years ago I got an ulcer. After it was treated, things were fine, but in the last 6 months, there have been 4 separate episodes where I get this growing burning pain at the base of my sternum in the center and it doesn’t move, but it lasts for maybe 3-5 hours. I have taken rolaids and an acid controller but felt no difference in the pain. The pain resembles the same pain from my ulcer but like I said, it only last a few hours where as my ulcer pain a few years ago lasted till I got treatment which was about 36-40 hours.
It is painful and 3 of the episodes have been at bedtime, the latest as I was getting ready for bed.
Any thoughts on this would be helpful.

The drug store and see if that resolves your problem if it doesnt resolve your problem if that resolves your issue.
The burnig will give you medications and let tell you need to treat the best thing to bed because the stuff you need to treat the best thing to treat the stuff you it sucs dont eat.
The long run loved tums it is completely natural rolaids have magnesium and it may interact.
For several hours before bed also take and aluminum in the medication take tums lasting effects but they are discontinued now gaviscon has also take tums it is the medication take prilosec as my ar is completely natural rolaids have magnesium and aluminum in them which can make things worse in them which.
