Dificulty breathing

[abree]

I have had difficulty breathing for the past two years on and off. I have seen a pulmonologist who says my o2 level is very high. I tell him it feels like I cant get releif from exhaling. I feel like i am suffocating. I have also been to a heart doctor and have had an ultrasound of my abdoman, a stress test, an echocardiogram and lots of x-rays. I ended up in the E.R. and they said the xray showed my abdoman was full of poop and that was the only thing they could see. Could it be an intestinal thing? I do get indigestion quite often. It is really getting to me that no one can find an answer. Could this have to do with acid reflux?

Hi,
This could be due to hiatal hernia ( all the other possible problems have been ruled out).
Hiatal hernia can cause GERD.
Upper GI endoscopy, barium xray and 24 hours pH monitoring may be done for evaluation of your problem.

I have the same symptoms as you and have also had all the tests.

I have a hiatus hernia and severe reflux. It does sound like reflux, however you should go and see your doctor who should be able to give u a diagnosis and something to help ease the symptoms.

Do you experience any other symptoms? Chest pain, fast heartbeat, choking sensation??

There are lots of different sympoms of reflux which i would never have imagined until i got this awful condition.
