Last year I kept getting chest pains though I didn't immediately think of heartburn. It was only after checking with the doctor and nothing came up with the tests that I came across an article and it suggested heartburn. I popped down to the chemists and picked out a pack of these - hoping it would solve the problem. I took one of these as soon as my chest pains came on, and thankfully, as soon as one of these dissolved in my mouth, the heaviness subsided.
