Gerd Treatments

About a month ago I went to the doctor because I had shortness of breath for 2 weeks before that. Now after a month of various examinations and treatments (asthma rescue inhaler, controller medication, allergies medinces, steroid inhaler and anxiety medication), I still find it difficult to get a deep breath. I go back on Friday and I did some research before hiring. could my breathing problems and chest tightness have GERD? I eat constantly over eater and also a tendency for spicy foods. eat to the point of nausea and then regugitating certain it is not unusual (yes I know gross). aftering take Pepto, I felt a little better. not large, but light. what do you think? Would you sell your shares. Only cash and bonds. Shortness of breath (SOB) is not a typical symptom of GERD, but atypical. That is, it is not normally take a symptom of GERD, but it is not unusual. More severe cases of GERD may be associated with SOB, but should only affect breathing for 1-2 hours after eating most of what happens is that the stomach does not move as fast food as it should and that increases pressure on the sphincter between the esophagus and stomach (LES), and the pressure can push the diaphragm and lungs a bit. Usually, this symptom of GERD, only exacerbates an existing operating system, though the asthma. If you think you have GERD can try to take Pepcid or Prilosec for 2 weeks and see if that solves the problem of breath .
