    hi all

    so i have posted in here before about my symptoms... i need some advice... my life and well being is hanging in the wind.

    6 years ago i was told i had half a cm of barrets a hiatus hernia and gerd.

    6 years later im suffering more than ever, breathing, bloating chest pain heart area,

    taking deep breaths i feel the tention on my osophagus, and my throat. i had a cam down my nose to look at my throat and all was fine.

    i am going for another edoscopy 8th april and i have asked to be put out completly as i am so scared. i am a 36 almost 37 and i am as scared as a child. i dont know if its my stomach causing my chest pain and mimicking heart attacks or it is my heart, i have been to hospital too many times amd bloods come back fine.

    i guess i am scared that barrets has progressed from half a cm over the last 6 years my quality of life is so bad... i have drank a lot over the years stopped smoking 3 years ago.

    i cannot lay on my back or on my right side

    i have to lay on my left side to release my stomach

    always bringing up phlem, always detatched nausia never ever quite with it, always soldiering through it putting a brave face on in front of people pretending im ok until i cant bare the pain .

    recently told my heart left venticle was pumping at 51% less of 55% normal wondering if thats causing my heart stress? but hospitals are not working fast enough.. im sick of being miss diagnosed or rejected or out aside i look healthy but im weak i cant walk a flight of stairs without being out of breath.

    x ray shows lungs fine..
