Dear brogo,
Your symptoms suggest that you had an episode of heart burn along with mild heat stroke.. The good thing is that they are both temporary conditions with no long term effects.. Lesson for you is that when you plan episodes of long duration in the sun you should be well hydrated and properly fed. Also you should use a sunscreen of spf> 30...
