    I have this pain right in the middle of my chest, between my boobs so to speak! haha. And i'm really worried!! I ate some pasta, then started feeling it. Had a nap and it went away, and I had a bit of dinner (not alot - because i was scared it's heartburn) and now it's back.


    Is this heartburn? Anyone else ever had this?? I'm scared that it's a flu or something and it's starting the pain there, then will go to my stomac. Oh god.


    .I just want to feel safe in my own skin. I just want to be happy again. I just want to feel deep in my own world. But I’m so lonely I don’t even want to be with myself. <3

    It does sound like heartburn or indigestion, i get it a lot and sometimes u get a bad pain and sometimes u dont. But its right on ur breastbone, inbetween ur boobs... so it sounds like heartburn... have you got any antacids? Like andrews stuff or tums.. they help a lot or polo's they are great for heartburn especially the sugar free ones cos they are mintier!!!


    Hope this helped a bit, it was just probably eating to quick or something i can get it with one food one day then not at other times? weird lol

    Yes, i get that, especially after pasta or bread!


    Try not to eat fast, and always eat your meals with a glass of water, so it can digest better [img]smileys/smilies_01.gif[/img]


    But i get very scared if i have heartburn, especially in the middle of the night, as i once woke up with very bad heart burn, and i was sick that was only last year... [img]smileys/smilies_06.gif[/img]

    Sounds like heartburn/indegestion to me. Try some Rennie/antacids to see if that helps. I get it sometimes after pasta (especially if the sauce is tomato based as it's quite acidic) It's never made me sick so try not to worry. A good burp is all you need [img]smileys/smilies_04.gif[/img]

    Heartburn is harmless but terribly uncomfortable. It won't make you v*. You'll know it's heartburn by the way it feels like it's burning and anything cool makes it temporarily subside. I get heartburn from ice cream, krispy kreme donuts and black olives! Go figure....
