Need quick relief (please)!!!

I hope somebody has a quick and natural remedy for this. I am on my 2nd day of probably my 10th Master Cleanse and have been experiencing some MAJOR MAJOR heartburn for about 5 straight hours now. I have only had heartburn two other times IN MY LIFE. I have full intention of powering through this 3 week cleanse so I am looking for a natural relief. But honestly, if this pain persists tomorrow, I will have to take something...though I've NEVER had to take anything before for this. For the record, I am a healthy 36 year old female. I generally eat VERY healthy and I always exercise, though I have been over-indulging on alcohol and some crappy food over the last couple of months (ugh...weddings, holidays, lack of will power). So this could just be a MAJOR detox symptom. Any ideas? Or more importantly, ANY suggestions to ease this INTENSE pain?? Thanks in advance for any help!

This is a reply to # 782,674try drinking some baking soda and water. keep up until symptoms die down. it won't hurt you, its just sodium and carbon. you may also want to use black strap molasses instead of the maple syrup in your masteer cleanse drink as the molasses is higher in minerals and minerals nuetralize acids. get organic b.s. molasses it tastes MUCH better than non-organic.

This is a reply to # 782,688Another thing that might work would be to pop a few ginger capsules.
I use ginger a lot. It's not as fast as baking soda or tums, but it's more natural. - Re: Need quick relief (please)!!! ParaZapper

This is a reply to # 782,899Thanks Everybody. The baking soda lessened it, though it wasn't really gone until I woke up this morning. BUT...it was replaced with HIVES HIVES HIVES (head, neck, ears, eyes, chin, palms, knuckles, ribcage, elbows...). I have also NEVER had this happen before and I really don't know what the deal is. I'm on my 3rd day of The Master Cleanse and I am quite experienced with this. Have done about 10 over the last two or three years. Any ideas of what is happening and what to do about the hives.
Also, I don't think it's a heart issue. I'm a healthy 36 year old female who generally eats VERY healthy and exercises all the time. Though I have WAY over-indulged in alcohol and some crappy food the last two months (ugh...weddings, holidays, and lack of willpower)! So maybe this is just an early detox symptom???Advertisement

If the baking soda did the trick, then it is probably not the heart. Just wanted to mentions it because a friend died at 36 from a heart attack. He thought it was heartburn. The same thing happened to my son-in-law, he thought it was heartburn.

This is a reply to # 783,039I had a cousin that had bad heart burn every day for years. He took maylocks(spelling?) and drank coke to make himself burp.
He should have gone to the Dr. It was a heart problem. He died at home of congestive heart failure.
He was about your age when it started. He died before he was 50.- Re: To nctalley nctalley

This is a reply to # 783,093Thanks for the concern, really. But as I said, this was only the third time EVER in my LIFE that I've had heartburn. The other two times were in my early twenties and were barely noticed (and were clearly induced by an excess of pizza and wine) :) I have been in great shape for years and am very very health, diet, exercise conscious. I would also certainly never drink soda and take malox for one bout of heartburn, yet alone YEARS of reoccuring heartburn! I do visit my doctor annually for an "overhaul" (I always fair EXTREMELY well) and if this problem did persist (and it seems to be gone completely since waking this morning) I would definitely take your advice and have this checked. Thanks again for your concern!

This is a reply to # 783,120Thank you for not getting mad at me.
Hey, ya know... I think pizza and wine are a good enough treat to suffer a little heart burn for every once in a while. LOL- I'll drink to that!! n/m nctalley

Thanks so much for your concern. I have certainly heard stories like that before and I can't say it didn't cross my mind last night! I try to be very conscious fo what is going on with my body and health. And I will certainly continue to do so! If this were to persist, I would certainly get it checked...but once in 15 years is probably no reason to panic yet. :) Thanks again!! - Response to PZ nctalley

This is a reply to # 783,136I agree, one case of heartburn is not cause for concern provided the baking soda relieved it within 15 to 30 minutes. Longer than that, angina can go away within a couple of hours to a few hours but the damage can worsen over time without additional pain.
Sounds like you have a handle on things.
