Heartburn??

Ive never had this before and dont have any indigestion problems. Eat all sorts of stuff at any time of the day or night without any problems.
But last night got into bed and started getting an uncomfortable feeling at the bottom of my throat/top of chest. Got worse til it was agony. Sat up and had a drink of water but it hurt so bad, like burning feeling that kept building up.(hence why im assuming heartburn). Kept getting loads of saliva in my mouth, like when before you are sick.
Was so bad and i was so tired that i just sat there crying with dribble pouring out my mouth, was pretty grim!!!!
I know heartburn is quite common- surely people dont get like that often??

thanx for the link.
I tend to sit up, have some water, give it a minute or so to wash down, then start sucking mints. If it doesn't clear I'll get up and find a proper remedy
It is uncomfortable - not sure it should be bad enough to make you cry though...
If i get it again as bad as that then ill see gp.
thanx
ETA- maybe it was just me being tired and narked at not being able to go to sleep that upset me, but was awfully painful. ill just keep some gaviscon/rennies to hand for next time.
