This is exact same symptoms i am having since the beginning of April.  It seems to be happening almost every night now after dinner.
I am 57+ and have menopause symptoms for years now. I do not smoke. I have only 2 cups coffee in a.m.  I drink lemon water in day.  I like a glass of wine or 2 in evening.  I like spicy food.  Most of our food we grow, including beef, as we try to avoid hormones, chemicals, and preservatives.
I do tend to eat fast as its usually late, then i sit and watch tv before going to sleep.  Is this what is doing it, besides i am an emotional person as well as a worrier?(more so now with mid-life)
The "panic attacks" are scary and seem to be getting worse.

It would hurt to switch to decaf on your coffee. But definitely slow down on your eating, it will help your digestive system, also about 30 mins after eating, if you can take a walk or some type of light exercise for about 15-20 mins would improve these symptoms.

Hi,
Ask your Doc for a PPI like protonix or Nexium. My doc prescribed one for me and it worked wonders. Lay off the caffiene and smoking too if you are having acid problems. Even decaf coffee can irritate your stomach. Soda pop (even ones without caffiene) can make your acidy too. I am off the Protonix for my stomach and with out caffiene in my diet except in small amounts I am fine.
