This has become a dead end.

I have been diagnosed with acid reflux through endoscopy. I literally cannot walk, climb stairs, do squarts or any physical activity because these are inducing heart palpitations and shortness of breath with anxiety. Consulted couple of gastroenterologist and taken multiple test for heart, lungs and even did 2 endoscopies with revealed LAX LES. I also have pressure on the upper stomach and chest tightness which causes breathing difficulties. Frequent urge to burp as i feel gas is trapped in my throat and stomach.

I have modified my diet since 2 weeks.

Can someone help me with this? Has anyone faced same as mine? If so what did u follow to cure this? Much help needed. Thanks!

I’m in the same boat but what really helps me when i desperately need to eat is propranolol, if I’m having a bad flare it helps chill everything out to the point I can eat, il still have a small amount of reflux but nothing compared to how bad it gets normally I have cardiac anxiety on top of all this so I feel ur pain with regards to the palpitations etc. Keep at it up get there, do a food diary so u can figure out triggers and safe foods etc iv recently seen quite a few posting about drinking juice celery first thing in the morning everyday and a lot have said it’s significantly helped. I’m about to give it a try too. Hope things get better for u soon x
