Hi... I am patient of gastritis and gets frequently sever heartburns. Yesterday around afternoon i was fine and I smoked few grams of Ice. Crystal meth though. And after that tried keeping my meals intake enough. Though I can t eat like normal. At night took few joints of weed to get sleep. I didn t sleep for last 26hrs straight and after that sleot for few hours like 3 hrs max. Now I am having sever heartburn though I ate and sleep. I just ate my lunch. Heartburn seems getting worse. What could have been possible problem? How to relive my heart burn? Is it because of lack of sleep since lack of sleep usually gives me heartburn.? Am I still yet to experience comeback of Meth?

Hi,
Welcome to Healthcaremagic.com.

I had gone through your question I can understand your concern about your heart burn.

As per your history and symptoms you are having reflux esophagitis, you need to avoid late night sleep, late night drinks, Late nights meals, these are most important cause for heart burn.

To avoid the problem make sure your head side of bed is raised at least 4 inches.
You can also take pantoprazole 40 mg per day at morning empty stomach for 2-3 weeks.

Yes sleeplessness can cause acid regurgitation and heart burn. At the time of heart burn you can chew sugar free gum for half an hour it will provide you relief.

Hope my answer will help you and visit us back in case you need any further assistance.

Regards
