Does anyone else have issues with painful heartburn??? Ever since I had my gallbladder removed I get horrible heartburn. (I had it removed 3/3) I don't each much greasy food because now it uh...goes right through me....
But no matter what I eat, acid reflux has become a way of life:(
Anyone else have this problem???? What can I do?????
Thanks:)

Sorry that you are experiencing so much pain. What has your doctor suggested that you do/take?


Heartburn is actually a symptom of GERD. Here is some information about both...
