Burning Question?
« on: April 10, 2013, 03:00 PM »
I made a base last night followed by the making of a curry for me and a friend.

As Id had a fair amount of drink all my judgement went out the window and I woke this morning after having what I can only presume as heartburn all night and saw the base I made was on the thick side.

Ive added about another Ltr of water to it but as yet not seen my freind yet to see if he also had a rough night.
Has anybody else experianced this in the past?

I would think the drink was the actual cause of the heartburn TT, or perhaps the combination of that and having a very spicy meal with it. Although if it lasted all night you may be developing an ulcer?

If the heartburn repeats over time, see your g.p.  It can be an early sign of Barrett's oesophagus, which has a very poor prognosis if not adequately controlled.

Yikes!
My initial concern was what I may have done to my mate but going on what other possibilities there may be I just hope he has been a bit worse for wear so I can rule these out.
I was wandering if this was a common complaint from using a double concentate of gravy but alas not!
A case of over indulment I hope (but never happened before?).
Thanks for the info

The good news is that there is some evidence that regular intake of turmeric can help to protect the oesophagus against the pre-cancerous changes that occur with Barrett's oesophagus, so just keep eating the curries !
