Question

I really enjoy eating chicken, but I seem to have this recurring issue. After I have it, I get this pain near my heart and it feels like there's acid moving upwards. It even affects my sleep sometimes. Drinking water helps occasionally, but not always. The funny thing is, I don't drink alcohol or smoke, and I'm generally healthy. It mostly happens with chicken, which is my favorite, and I try to limit it to once a week, but even then the pain comes back. Spice seems to trigger it too. My friends eat everything, drink alcohol, and smoke but they don't have any problems. I'm always the one avoiding food during outings, yet this still happens. What could be going on, and how can I deal with it?
