Yes, I am probably REALLY dumb for thinking I have it since I am only 18 years old, nearly 19, but.. I have a lot of the same symptoms as it.. Some days I am fine, but most other days it feels like food/drink is being regurgitated into the back of my throat, which makes me stop in my tracks for a few seconds. It doesn't burn at all. Sometimes I do get the odd occasional heartburn and acid taste when I burp but that only happens like two times a month, if that. If I eat a little too much (and it's not THAT much, believe me), I get stomach pains, feel really nauseous for about 30 minutes and just generally feel crappy.
The specialist at the hospital thinks it is nothing serious at all, and thinks it may be a Hiatus Hernia, but the only symptoms I have of that is burping, bad nausea and finding swallowing slightly difficult.
I want to have an endoscopy done, but they don't want to perform one on me because they think that it isn't necessary at my age.. I've got to go back in November for a check-up, but I'm almost sure that they're just going to send me away and got to go back for another check-up in 6 months. :(
Digestive issues do run in my family as my Dad has acid reflux and a weak esophagus.
I'm really scared though, and no one seems to understand how awful I feel daily, not even family. :weep: I am convinced that I won't live past 25 years of age.
