Kristen, I'm so glad it turned out not to be a heart attack! Take care of you, okay?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
What they all said! I'm glad it had a happy ending!

Damn, Kristen!
Pepcid (and its ilk) and tums are my friends, may they be yours too!

Prilosec OTC has been my salvation. I just had a coworker go through the exact same exerience! He started feeling much better after I recommended it. I used to take Nexium but the insurance company won't cover it, they said Prilosec was the alternative. It mostly works well. I sometimes have to augment with something for a short time.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
My doctor told me that Prilosec was indeed Nexium over the counter. I don't know how pharmalogically literal that is, but luckily I haven't had a need to try any other pill than the purple one.

That was a pretty extreme way to avoid writing, Kristen. I remember life before acid reducers. It wasn't pretty. It does seem like something that painful should be killing you. So glad it wasn't your heart.

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.
Ah procrastination. Seriously, glad you are ok and get yourself some Prilosec. I couldn't live without it.
