Heartburn from Water?

[Kay07 734]

Okay let me preface this by saying I am a Water fiend. I drink so much water that I am fairly sure I slosh. Be that as it may, I do notice that if I drink too much on an empty stomach I get mild heartburn. I usually take a prilosec maybe once a month and it goes away pretty much instantly but it is always because of water. Does this happen to anyone else?

I just had my band removed on 8/28, and since then, drinking Water on an empty stomach (or during exercise) causes me reflux. I drink lots of water, always have, and the reflux is a new problem. I’m getting sleeved next month and am now concerned going in with reflux

Kay, if your stomach already has a lot of acid in it, adding a big rush of Water makes it slosh up into your esophagus. Since you don't suffer with this the rest of the time, slowing down when your stomach is empty is the "cure". Take it from the Acid Queen!

I too even when I’ve had a meal 30 min or an hour later I too get that hurt feeling in my stomach. Feels the same when I’m hungry or full
