I've been having persistent mild hearburn for over 2 weeks now. The dr gave me 10mg of omeprozole to take which helped a bit but didn't get rid of it completely, I phoned them up and they have increased it to 20mg for 2 weeks.
I had an episode months ago and a course of 2weeks cleared it up until now.
I've just heard that an old colleague has passed away from stomach cancer and I stupidly googled symptons...why oh why
Persistent heartburn is one of the symptoms and I'm terrified this is what I have. Cancer is my only health trigger btw.
I feel sick and I'm really panicking...I suppose the anxiety will only make the heartburn worse as well.
Any advice please. I'm in a bit of a state now
