You need to see a doctor. It could be cancer.
Or acid reflux.-
That's so mean!
I'd never wish acid reflux on anyone!

Still see a doctor. No one on this forum can actually help you. Just a doctor.

Antacid pills. Very chalky.

LOL, buy some tums! -
I think Acid Reflux is the more probable culprit. But I'll advice you to follow the general consensus -- visit you doctor.
I have Acid Reflux myself and experience constant heartburn, though I'm a CKD patient and it's a lot different.
Try to isolate what's been causing your heartburn. Mine is from over eating or anything that aggravates my hyperacidity like sodas, vinegars, chocolates, coffee... -
So many things can cause that, but four times a day is frequent. It is risky to the esophagus, and over time can change the cells in the lining of the esophagus. If you have reflux, it really is a risk for esophageal cancer. Such frequent heartburn could be an sign of a peptic ulcer. You do need to see a doctor, and not take it lightly at all.

thank you everyone, calling the doctor in the morning!

Heed kab625's words. not all heart burns are treated the same way. I take Maalox Suspension and even went to taking Omeprazole for my reflux. Do you think this would be suitable for you?
No, I think not. It is wise to see your doctor for he is the only one who could sensibly enlighten you on this matter.
