People say you should drink milk to get rid of heartburn and I've got it REALLY bad right now it is doing my absolute head in... My problem is I cannot stand drinking milk it tastes horrible!

Do any of you ladies have any other ways to get rid of heartburn? All of your suggestions would be a great help because I feel like I wanna cut my throat right now haha! Xxx

Gaviscon works wonders! You can buy sachets of the liquid x

yogurt? cheese? dairy might help to neutralise the acid. Half a teaspoon on bicarbonate of soda in water if you have some, and sit upright no lying down flatish.

I hate milk too. It's vile. I found making myself an Options mint hit chocolate helped wonders and it disguised the grossness of milk!

How about flavoured milk? I keep having banana milk. Know its a bit sugary, but I don't like milk on its own either xx

[LauraMummyToBe]

Thank you for all your suggestions ladies, I have to be careful with dairy (cheese ect) even chocolate and chocolate based things cos they seem to kick off seriously bad migraines! Xxx

I have had acid reflux since my teens and when I take really bad bouts the only thing that helps me is cold custard straight from fridge, or sooking on msltesers. They both are quite thick and lined better x x
