Are you taking anything for it on a daily basis? Mine has been so bad lately, it does not matter what I eat or when I eat. I had just pasta for dinner, but woke up at 5:am this morning with the WORST burning pain in my gut and of course, my chest. That just sent me into panic mode. It hurt so bad!!!! I have been drinking Maalox like crazy for it. Where does the start of your pain? mine is right at the bottom of the breastbone, in that soft spot, and then just shoots all up into my chest. Anything you have found that works????
