Heartburn is a common symptom of stress and it hurts! You have my sympathy.

Googling is NOT a good idea. No sympathy there!!

Why are you frightened to go back to your doctor? There are many things available over the chemist counter for heartburn. Ask the chemist what will work best alongside your medication.
