Its nearly 4am and I'm awoken out of my sleep again by my stupid heartburn in my stomach. Its the 4th night in a row I've been woken by the pain, its really shitting me off now, i've been having this problem since early last weekend and even though I feel its getting better (or im coping better with it) it really is quite painful/worrying. The pain is only really bad when I go to sleep (ie. lie flat for a couple of hours), so now I've taken mylanta and i'm sitting up for 10 minutes before I go back to bed so the pain will pretty much go away. I'm going to go see someone about it on Monday if its not better by then, or maybe I'll cross paths with my parents on the weekend and they might be able to help me out. I was actually worried it was gallstones which is something that runs in my family and happens to its victims about the age of 25, but supposedly you can't get rid of that kind of pain with mylanta. Although perhaps I could have the early stages of it or something.
This is the second time this sorta pain thing has happened to me with my stomach, the first was about or over a year ago when I was at the grove and it was pretty bad then, but eating a bit better and cutting out alcohol and fizzy drinks pretty much helped my recovery (so I think). This year I'm not quite sure what bought it on as I have been eating healthier, although I have been drinking a lot of fizzy drinks due to going to uni and trying to propel myself to do homework, perhaps I just have the start of a wonderful relationship with a stomach ulcer?
This sucks, im feeling better (Although freezing) and I'm going back to bed. Whinge Whinge.
