Heartburn Caused By Garlic

Kinda gross tmi, but…how to get rid of heartburn?

I ate waayy too much last night, like as in:
3 Sizzlers garlic toasts
a bowl of buttered broccoli
a cheesy sausage on bread
2 cups of milk
and a Snickers ice cream cup.

then went to bed.

So when I woke up I was feeling uber-uncomfortable and randomly decided while brushing my teeth to see if making myself throw some of it up would help(no I’m not bulimic). That didn’t work AT ALL. In fact, since then & all day I’ve had PAINful heartburn that just won’t quit(and it kinda feels like I have a piece of gum stuck in the back of my throat).

I’m at school and there’s no antacids to be found on campus…so how can I get rid of this? Is there a difference between regular heartburn and heartburn caused by vomiting?

One thing that you can try to see if that helps with the heartburn is to take something like gingerale to see if that helps. However, I would recommend checking with the School Nurse first before trying it to see what they say.
