I went to my doctor for indigestion 😞

I had experienced frequent heartburns, bloating in my upper abdomen, and a lot of discomfort in my tummy everywhere. One evening it was so bad that I felt like I couldn’t breathe. I didn’t end up going to urgent care that night because my fiance had given me Pepcid and was able to calm me down and have me begin breathing slowly.

That night had changed things for me. I went to see my physician later in the week and told her what had happened. She recommended me to start a food journal to notate everything I eat and any side effects it may cause. She also told me to begin eating smaller meals and eating slower to have the food digest better. I will be honest, it was so hard for me to keep a food journal because I would forget and not write it in. But something I have continued to do is eat slower, smaller meals, and avoid the foods that I felt triggered me.
