I ask because the health practitioner thinks I may have it, but I have to heartburn…at all.
I have GERD and do not get heartburn.
However before starting on Nexium I did have stomach ulcers ( I was on antibiotics for 5 months). I was producing lots of acid and would bring up cupfuls of acid daily.
Two years later the ulcers are healed and I am still on Nexium and I do not get heartburn.
I dont see why not.
heart burn is when the acid irritates your esophagus. maybe yours just has extra mucus or is unusually insensitive.
take a make up mirror and examine the inside of your teeth. acid refux causes your teeth to erode from the inside.
also do you burp and taste vinegar?
