Hi, so about a year ago i was diagnosed with GERDS... (or acid reflux disease) after suffering for about 9 years, in which i now take tablets for. However, in the past 6 months i have noticed that i am now feeling nauseous after eating, normally about 30 minutes after a meal, am constantly tired, thirsty, feel dizzy when standing up and moving around, get out of breath very easily and sometimes get a sinking feeling in my heart/chest. I also, which i have had for longer than six months, suffer from my stomach bloating out like a balloon when i eat or drink anything however small the portion. I do have a history of IBS in my family, however i do not experience symptoms like stomach pain or irregular bowels like others with IBS therefore it has been seen as being unlikely that it is this.

I had an endoscopy a year ago to confirm my GERDS and nothing else was found apart from having a weak muscle at the top of my stomach. I have recently been back and forth to my GP and have had blood and urine tests all of which have come back normal. I am a normal weight, 19 years old, have a good balanced diet and try to exercise at least two times a week, so am completely confused as to why i have all these symptoms. My doctors have no idea what could be wrong with me so i was wondering if anyone could help? Has anyone had the same symptoms and got a diagnosis, i'm fed up of feeling like this and would just like some answers!!!

    i have the constant nausea in the pit of my gut and the fatigue and weakness and tiredness as well as the bloating and inflammation and the severe constant dizziness to wear now when i go walk i start pulling to the side like im drunk. i have gerd and seen the gastroentologist as you i also have ibs and some other minor health issues ive been dealing with along time. the only other symptons i have im not sure if you have are nerve pain and sometimes chest pain . after many specialist the gastroentologist who told me that my stomach and esophagus were inflamed and had a few nodules removed and the ent told me that my laryx was inflamed and then the heart was inflamed with pericarditis for a bit and then the lung with dry plueritis. after seeing the respiralogist yesterday i find out i have a partial collapsed lung from friction of dry pleuritis so now further investigation goes on.i have had two specialist tell me now plus my opthamologist that i nerve to see a nerve specialist now because they think i have a multiple myel sheath problem. and a kidney or liver problem which is also seperate from a gastroentologist as my cholesterol and my phospherous numbers are sky high. i dont know if any of the other is familiar but i would get your liver and kidney function test done as well as your phosperhous levels checked and when they do the liver function test make sure they mark your req for all the liver tests like billirubin etc

      Hi Monica

      I read your post about the problems you've experiencing, and I wanted to know how are you doing now? What really caught my attention is that you mention how you walk and how you're pulled to the side, thats exactly what ive been experiencing this week. Ive had this problem before and I was told that its vertigo from maybe perimenopause or allergy infection in ears. My chiropractor did a procedure and it did go away. But this time the pull seem like its triggered from the stomach. Ive tried walking and pressing the stomach in and it doesnt happen. I dont know if its from the bloating or inflammation. Did you fo

      find out what was causing you to walk that way? I have Gerd ( hiatal hernia) and gastritis and on top of that going through menopause. Lately, my symptons have been ok except for the bloating this week. By the way, what exactly are nodules?

      ,You seem to have had alot going on but i hope you are feeling much better now.

      Regards

      Mary
