Re: Heartburn & Indigestion

[Guest guest]

I occasionally get heartburn, but it's never been a significant problem for

more than a couple of days. I normally eat before 6 PM, if I eat after 7:00

PM, it's probably going to be a problem.

Before I was diagnosed with PSC (for about a year) I suffered from chronic

heartburn & occasional indigestion. These symptoms eventually drove me to the

doctor and eventually more PSC-like symptoms emerged and the diagnosis

followed. I the meantime I was prescribed a few different meds for the

heartburn - the most successful of these was Prevacid (a proton pump

inhibitor) which I am still on.

Good luck.

Beverly, I also get heartburn from time to time

without any rhyme nor reason to it, but it usually

lasts only for a few hours.......but they are mighty

uncomfortable hours.

I am wondering.....my dad had heart problem because

his arteries were sclerosing......my brother had

blockages in his leg arteries because they were

sclerosed, same with is coroted (sp) arteries and the

arteries near his kidneys.........I had UC which had

many sclerosed areas and now PSC with sclerosed bile

ducts. Maybe the heartburn is caused by the food pipe

constricting from time to time.......hey Aubrey??? or

any medical professional, what do ya think?

I have suffered with heartburn for the last 3 or 4 yrs. Eating Rolaids like there was no tomorrow. Then the fatigue set in. Still didn't know what was causing it. I just thought I was working too hard. Since I have been taking the Urso, I have heartburn for just a minute, and it goes away. I never contributed the Urso to helping until I had my ERCP and pancreatitis. They took me off the Urso for a couple of weeks, and I started have the heartburn all day again. It wasn't until I went back on the Urso, that I realized it may be helping the heartburn. I don't know whether anyone else has experienced this.

I also suffer from wicked heartburn. never know when it's coming or

what is going to cause it. I have an 'open order' for Pepcid and it

works great for me.
