Extra strong mints, although if it happens often carry Gavilast, they are really good, small pill that you swallow. gaviscon are good too but they have to be chewed. ann Glos

I think the bicarb is a no no, I can't decide which I would want the most - a volcanic erruption or spontaneous combustion ttfn Lin

Have just managed to get a word from Miss Heartburn after she has just eaten half a packet of softmints - Burp! sigh thats better. Thanks chaps - I think I will try the "serves you right" remedy next time. Lin

A peppermint tea (or ginger) might help.

My work mate is sitting opposite me with a severe case of heartburn - well she did over indulge at lunchtime ending with strawberries and cream. Anyway she is sitting here and her face is looking a bit how can I say, as if she is fall of wind. Any antidotes Lin
