Shortness of Breath from Acid Reflux?

Yep. Very scary when it's happening!

Toothpaste will not remove the stomach acid odor that our lungs struggle to expel. Fresh air from the freezer helps. 🙌

So when I’m anxious or have a lot going on, it causes me to be short of breath sometimes so that anxiety messes with my stomach causing burping or reflux.

I bought a bed wedge that has helped me tremendously. It took a little bit to get used to, but sleeping at an angle has helped my GERD so much. If I lie flat, it’s just like an invitation into my throat for hours every day

Yes also I cough a lot when in bed and it’s been bad lately even when I’m not eating or before I eat

definitely! between my GERD and anxiety, i have chest tightness/shortness of break more often than not it feels like 🥲

yes, and i also developed a cough due to inflammation of the airways. (there's actually a diagnosis called "adult onset gerd-related asthma" for that situation!). omeprazome got rid of all the symptoms of it, in my case, but it's supposedly not advisable for more than a few weeks, much less a full year like i've been on it!

Yes, especially after eating sometimes, if i eat too fast but also just randomly, doesnt need to be a lot of food either. It’s like my body gets overwhelmed and doesnt know how to work anymore. Moving around helps

I had no idea that was a symptom but it makes so much sense. For years i didnt know why i felt short of breath. Glad i am not the only one!

Yes ! It definitely causes me to be short of breath at times
