Wow, after all our discussion regarding GERD and Heart disease?  Well here is definitely an article you want to read!!

"Heartburn occurs when stomach acid backs up into the esophagus, causing chest pain. Gastroesophageal reflux disease or GERD, as it's called technically, has nothing to do with the heart ... or does it?"

Very interesting Teri. I am having alot  of problems with heartburn right now and it seems like my heart is acting up also. I go see the heart doc in the morning. I did see a doc last night and had an ekg done. Those don't really calm my fears though since the one was normal after 6 hours on it and I had the 80-90% blockage at the time. Well at least I did my part by seeing the doc and calling my heart doc. Talk to you later. Barb
