I’m Dr. Brittany. I have a sick patient with a heart condition. The heart condition that this man has is heartburn. Heartburn is when you get a feeling in the throat and chest by acid flowing up from the stomach. When you get heartburn it really, literally, feels like your heart is burning and it comes up about every five minutes. It really bothers you. He said that his heart felt like fire.
      Someone might get a heartburn if they don’t eat the correct foods of what they should be eating. They might have ate some spicy foods. Maybe they aren’t used to spicy foods, but they will eat it anyway. They just force themselves.
       You know they have it because they might look weird and might be acting funny, too! They might close their eyes for a long time or put their hand on their heart and squeeze their fist. They may want to go to bed early or take a nice long nap.
        If they want to be treated they should take pills. The pills could be Tums or another type of  pill for the burning sensation. They might take a liquid medicine, too! People don’t really take a liquid medicine. My patient is taking a lot of pills. He said that he is getting better every single second.
