Having heartburn, most days, for three weeks or more, could be a sign of oesophageal or stomach cancer (cancer of the oesophagus or stomach). Chances are it’s nothing serious, but finding it early makes it more treatable. Don’t learn to live with it, tell your doctor.
This is a BSL version of the leaflet which tells you more about oesophageal and stomach cancer http://www.nhs.uk/ogcancer
