My doc says heartburn is not normal and to report it but what I am feeling doesn't exactly feel like heartburn and at times it doesn't make sense for it to be heartburn...

1. It feels this way first thing in the morning

2. Feels this way when I am hungry and at that TOM it is worse

Is this the description of "feeling tight"? that I have read about?

I just feels like there is a 10 lb weight on my chest...no burning, no nausuea or sick feeling...but I just don't know what to call this feeling. Can anyone relate?

Been paying close attention to the feeling all day...I am thinking it is gas because when I burp...it gets better....how odd!

I have had the luxury of only having heartburn at one time in my life. 6 years ago when I was prego. The only way I can describe it is really a burning feeling in my chest and sometimes it would radiate to my throat.

Good luck I hope you figure out whats going on.

I am going to describe it and ask the doc but I am now almost certain it is just the feeling of the band being "tighter" because it is happening more early in the day now and I think it's sudden onset/increase is due to the hormonal changes of that time of the month. Yeah...one more thing that PMS gives me...lol. So I am just trying to go with more soft choices and it seems to help. Not really fun though. I hope it doesn't make me have to put off my fill for another month but whatever the doc decides is best. I just keep telling myself that.
