Is it really acid reflux ? I am extremely worried !!
Posted , 5 users are following.
Few days ago while going to sleep I experienced a sudden jerk as if I am going to faint ( fainting sensation as if I am going to fall from a cliff with black out ). After visiting my family physician he concluded that it is nothing but Acid reflux. Even after the medications I am experiencing shortness in breath, chest tightness ( centre of the chest below breast bone ), fainting like sensation whenever I eat too much and gets worse when I lay down which avoids me from sleeping, heavy eyes, a bit of bloating, it feels like something has stuck in my throat ( bottom of the throat ), difficultly swallowing, cough, dry throat, feeling tired all day. I visited my doctor multiple times and he said it is nothing but Acid reflux. Please help to clarify this is just an acid reflux or something else

Go back to your doc and request a blood test for the tiredness and fainting sensation perhaps your iron ferratin and B12's are low. Also, request an MRI scan of your chest area. Don't be fobbed of the gp's are great at doing that..because they don't know what's going on they can't be bothered to find out while we continue suffering.... best wishes.....

Many of these symptoms sound like acid reflux but fainting sensations and tiredness do not. I have acid reflux and don't get these two symptoms. One reason for your tiredness may be because you are getting disturbed sleeps. See your doctor again for adivice.

I'm thinking h phylori also except for the fainting part. Try manuka honey, mastic, yogurt, and kefir. Avoid fried foods and citrus fruits and see if that helps, good luck!!
