July 16th, 2012, 4:30 am. Woke up with severe burning sensation from my chest to my stomach, no idea what it was. Took myself off to hospital for a checkup & various physical tests, nothing found or diagnosed. Advised to take paracetamol when I was home again the go to bed and see if there was any improvement.
Got home, washed three paracetamol tablets down with a glass of milk.
Instant relief! "Bugger me!" I said, "I guess this is what heartburn feels like."
I'd not experienced it before, or not as severely as on that day.
