How long does heartburn usually last for?

Monday, March 16th, 2009

itsanthonyhere asked:

I keep getting these heart pains after I eat…either that or when I go without eating longer than I should.
It hurts directly over my heart, (on the chest) and directly below it, around the bottom and in the middle of the left section (obviously left, but I can’t leave that part out).

I don’t know if it’s heartburn. I never eat anything spicy or hot. All I eat is chicken, vegetables, or whole wheat stuff. I don’t eat ribs or pizza or anything like that.

But these pains last for hours..sometimes an entire day, and lately I actually feel, but very rarely, pains up in my left shoulder.
Sometimes I’m like “SHH***** THAT HURT” but it’s only for like 2 seconds.

It’s been pretty recent, and I know many of you say “why would you not just go to a doc?” Well…I don’t have insurance, and I might as well ask if it’s heartburn first before I go spending money.

I’m twenty, 4 to 6 % body fat..I do exercise and I NEVER eat anything bad for me.Could this be heartburn if I don’t eat bad?
I forgot about stress…thanks Melissa.
I am stressed as all S***
So that would probably explain it. but..then ..even after I calm down..and relax, it’ll still occur for hours until I go to bed..and still be there when I wake up? Is it normal for it to last this long?
