I’ve been dealing with some painful bloating today. Not common for me. After accepting it for most of the day, I finally did a google and learned peppermint tea can help.

I just happened to have some on hand. I made some in a large cup with two tea bags. And it seems to have worked. I’m surprised! And relieved.

    I love peppermint tea. I have a lot of stomach issues, and it always seems to help a bit.

    The worst, though, is when I’m super bloated and it makes my heart skip beats. That’s scary.

        I have, and thankfully, my heart is in great shape. Apparently I have a hiatal hernia which is irritating the vagus nerve, causing the PVCs.

        When it started though, I immediately went to the doctor. I was scared I was having a heart attack (it’s still a bit scary, even though I know it’s fine).
