Alright...I have acid reflux and my doc has prescribed Nexium. I have been taking the Nexium for about 6 months now and I am starting to experience chest pains again. The pain is under my left breast....and shoots down my left arm. Sometimes there is no pain in the arm, it will just go numb. Does anyone else experience this? It is beginning to freak me out a bit.:)

You have an acidic system........try taking extra magnesium and calcium.......Baking soda also 3-5grams in the morning and before bed......This will allow you to ween off the nexium. Nexium does nothing to solve the problem. It just mask's the problem.
Get some PH testing strips and always make sure your bodies PH is 6.5 to 7.5. I can guarantee you, your PH is 5.0-5.5. Too acidic which causes acid reflux, sleepiness, tiredness and lack of concentration among other things.

the chest pain could be gallbladder........it does radiate to differant areas........including the arm and even the back.

I agree with cyphon to a great degree. But you may actually have too little acid to digest your food. adding some digestive enzymes will both increase digestive juices and lower the bodies acidity...one of those weird things in life...
Example: lemons are very acid- but they lower acidity in the kidneys. go figure.

Thanks to everyone for their input...

Cy...as far as the baking soda..would I have to do that everyday?

Mamba....what could spark the gallbladder to radiate pain inother areas?
