[QUOTE="Old Boar, post: 4693604, member: 2957"] There is a very simple test for acid levels in the stomach. Take a teaspoon of baking powder in some water and wait. If you belch within 30 seconds, your stomach acid is OK. (You should belch a few times too). If you do not burp at all, or only little burps after a few minutes, you have low stomach acid. This too can cause heartburn and acid reflux. Apple cider vinegar helps with this - a pudding spoon in the day sorts it out. A feeling of burning in the chest is a different feeling to acid reflux. Usually with acid reflux you feel it quite low down in the middle of your ribs, and standing up straight and tall and a few deep breaths calms it down. A chest infection burning is more general and is usually worse first thing. I know you cannot face going to the GP - but can you face going to see the chemist? [/QUOTE]
