What Causes Severe Heart Burn?
Hi I started getting heartburn in the last couple years when ever I eat hard boiled eggs which never was a problem.. Scramble is fine only hard boiled gives me gas and a really bad burping odor that leads to me throwing up from the smell of it .. Any thoughts ?

Hello and thank you for asking us on HCM!
I understand very well your concerns.
Have you that heartburn for years? Have you taken any medication for that before? Have you food reflux (return of your food back to the mouth)?
That condition may be caused by gastritis, and high produce of gastric acid.
Take Ranitidin twice daily to lower the amount of gastric acid and to put your heartburn away.
If that medication don't help, consult a gastro enterologist to do further examinations.
Hope you'll be fine soon.
