My stomach is burning and burning, it doesnt stop, I have been on zantac and prilosec, nothing helps!! I get the chills it burns so bad, the only time I have relief is like an hour or two a day, but then it comes right back, this has been going off and on for a month!! I feel like I'm dying! Everytime I get it I have to go to the hospital emergency room, I am just at a whits end, what do I do?????????? I need help!!!!!!!!!

What did the emergency room doctor say? Someone in another thread mentioned that the emergency room is really not setup to diagnose conditions that don't require admittance. Have you seen your doctor? I suggest you start with your GP or a gastroenterologist. There are tests that might help determine the problem. Sometimes the medical profession really can't figure out what's going on, but other times they can really help.

It's also possible that you need a different medicine. Not all medicines have the same affect on an individual. I would rather not make suggestions -- let a doctor make recommendations.

Good luck!

AALEIGH0612 > Sorry to hear your plight.

Is the burning sensation always constant or gets worse after a meal?
What do you normally have for meals?

Did you have any tests done? Endoscopy , Upper GI?

I have the burning pain-I know exactly how that feels!! Have they done an endoscopy or anything to determine what could be going on? That sounds like a must to me.
