I'm really worried because I've had gastritis since 1998, but these past two weeks have been different. I've been feeling this nagging burning sensation in my upper chest that spreads to my upper back and sometimes even to my arms. It gets worse when I'm lying down in bed, making it quite uncomfortable. I've tried taking some antacid tablets and they worked a bit, but the pain is still pretty intense and annoying. Could this be something more serious, or is there something else you'd recommend I do to get this under control?

I've been having this annoying pain in my food pipe whenever I swallow food, and I've noticed a mild chest pain every time I eat. It's also like there's this burning heat in my stomach, especially when I have tea or coffee. What could be causing this? Should I be worried?
You may be experiencing symptoms of acid reflux or gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). I would recommend trying antacids like Gelusil, Digene, or Pudin Hara for relief from the heat and discomfort in your stomach. Additionally, you can consider taking medications like Pantocid or Omeprazole to reduce stomach acid production and alleviate chest pain while eating. It is important to avoid trigger foods like tea or coffee that can worsen your symptoms.
