Is it possible to have Brain Freeze and Heartburn at the same time?
336364
yes, they are two completely unrelated conditions.  Heart Burn is a digestive problem.  It is due to stomach acid, and sometimes other stomach contents coming up into your gullet.  Brain Freeze is just a reaction of nerves around the roof of your mouth to a cold substance.  While spicy foods are one thing that are common provokers of heart burn, it's possible for non-spicy, and even cold foods to do it (what foods provoke acid reflux/heart burn just depend on the individual).  In fact some people have such bad heart burn that they can get it even if they haven't eaten anything at all.

Maybe... See a doctor if it happens again.\nWhen you swallow, you have to stop eating. If you were having some trouble breathing anyway, took large bits or developed reflux, as someone else suggested, your breath control could've been impaired. It took longer for you to recover and start breathing again.\nThe second thing is: were you eating any new foods or spices? Sometimes you could also develop an allergy to something you have always eaten.

There are no nerves in your brain, so it is not your actual brain. I would talk to a doctor if this is seriously bothersome.  My first thought was mini stroke or aneurysm

Yes.  Not only is this true, it is also possible to vomit and defecate at the same time!!  That is not a pleasant thing to do, so don't try it.

I used to have that problem and still do occasionally.When you are either j****ng off or having s*x, it causes it a lot of pressure in your brain stem area and the major areas of the back of your head and it can cause serious cramp like pains. I thought the first few times it happened to me that I was going to pass out but didn't...But mainly you are putting a lot of stress on your nerves but even more pressure on your head--Just take it easy for a while: do what you would normally do and maybe take a few Motrin or Tylenol before or after s*x or ej*******on...Hope this helps and good luck...You are not alone!

First, don't panic.  Second, yes, by all means see your doctor.  These symptoms could be various things, the least of which could be gastric reflux or hiatal hernia.  It could also be something more serious.  \n\nCall your doctor's office and ask to speak directly to the physician, physician's assistant or a nurse.  Explain your symptoms in as much detail as you can.  They will get you in immediately if they feel it is urgent.  \n\nGood luck!

Hi I have the same problem except that I also get migranes during temp changes.  Not sure what the connection is and I saw lots of doctors for this.  Are you taking any migrane meds? They really help.  Ask your doc about Maxalt.  It's nice to know someone else out there has this problem. Nice to know i'm not alone with a pain in the butt of a problem.  Good luck.

Maybe your symptoms are not related to eachother.  As for the sick feeling after eating, have your doctor do a blood test for H. pylori.  It's a bacteria that causes ulcers.  It's a really quick blood test.  My doctor did it in the office and gave me the results right then along with a round of antibiotics.  I was sick for a couple of years before changing doctors and getting the right diagnosis.  Good luck on the issue of passing out.  I also have that problem.  My doctor told me that in 65% of the cases they never find a cause.  I had an MRI to check for tumors in the brain (I have a history of cancer so that was a possibility), an EEG to test for seizures, and a carotid ultrasound to check for blockage in my arteries.  Everything came back fine.  Apparently, it is all stress induced.  I wouldn't worry about the vision problems.  Those are very common with migraines.  I get those too and you can even get silent migraines where you only experience the vision disturbances without the headache.  If you really feel like something is wrong, keep pushing your doctor for answers.  You should listen to your body.

It would initially knock you unconscious. When you came to, you would have a feeling of nausea and you would also feel cold and hot at the same time. There may be areas of your body that are numb and others that are hypersensitive to all external and internal stimuli. Your vision may be impaired and your short term memory will be effected in some way or another. You'd be shaky and disoriented, dehydrated, and clammy.  Over all it wouldn't be a good feeling.

Do you smoke? it may be sign of Emphysema.\n\nIf you feel numbness in your finger, blurred vision associated with the pain, you may have heart problem.\n\nIt may be just a bad heartburn.\n\nConsult your doctor in any case please.

I had the same thing one time. Turned out I'd pulled some muscles in my chest at the same time. Probably nothing but go to the doctor if it gets worse or it worries you.

of course you can have pain in two different parts of your body and no they do not cancel each other out\na brain (at least a normal brain) can handle numerous different stimuli at the same time

Not to panic, but these are symptoms consistent with very serious conditions including aneurysm or hydracephelus promarily. If I were you I would get to the ER for a brain CT STAT. Seriously dont wait if the pain hasnt subsided with analgesics it could be very critical. Let me know if you have more questions mcc_md@yahoo.com

NO. Indigestion or heartburn, which is it you have? They are different. Indigestion makes you feel bloated and really off, nauseaous, usually happens when you over eat. If this is the case let me know and I will send you some remedies.\n Heart burn is gastric reflux, when the acids rise up the oesophagus. If this is what you have a simple cure is mixing a teaspoon of Sodium Bicarbonate (Baking Powder/Soda) in warm water and drinking it down. You will let out a huge belch from the gas produced and feel much better. Sodium Bicarbonate is an alkaline substance and the interaction with you acidic stomach will neutralize the excess and create gas which is then expelled as a belch. this is a temporary relief measure and if you get chronic heartburn you should get it checked out.\n\nHope this helps.\n\nCraig - Naturopath

Sounds like gall stones. Lay off spicy and fatty foods and it will limit the attacks until you can have surgery to have the gall bladder removed (insist on laproscopic surgery as you'll be out of the hospital the same day and back to work within the week). When having an attack, I find if you can induce a state of near-hypothermia (you need the muscles to spasm in a shiver) that you can work loose gall stones blocking bile ducts (the pressure is why you feel pain). Also the most comfortable way to rest sitting in a chair backwards leaning forward slightly. I slept like that many a night before having my surgery done and it helped loads.\n\nGood luck.
