Case Scenario based upon the Digestive System: Darrin is severely overweight, smokes, and lays around every chance he gets. After most meals, he has a case of "heartburn". He eats Tums like candy on a regular basis. He has even learned to eat Tums prior to meals that he knows are more aggravating than others. The "burn" finally gets unbearable, so he makes an appointment with his physician. What specialist would Darren need to see? What would his diagnosis be (use the clinical term)? What is the etiology of this condition? What can be done to treat this condition? Do you think that antacids create more harm than good? What are the possible long term effects if left untreated? What might this condition be confused with? Explain your answers. Also, take into consideration homeostasis. Protein digestion begins in the stomach with the break down occurring from hydrochloric acid (HCL). Would/could the body actually produce too much HCL? Please defend your answer.
