Heartburn

Was wondering how long did people's heartburn last for and what did you do to make it feel better ?

    I take prescription Protonix (generic=Pantoprazole). I went off it after 2 weeks and felt like crap. I've been back on it ever since and my tummy feels fine. BTW... I used to get terrible acid before surgery. Took several Zantac every day. Not any more....
