Re: tightness in chest and continuous gas

Hello All,

For the past 3 weeks I've been belching with chest  and upper back discomfort.  Specifically, in the mornings I'm OK but throughout the day I feel shortness of breath when I'm not active.  It feels like I have a blockage in my chest and  esophagus area.  Interestingly, I also feel the symptoms when I'm relax.  I went to the doctor and my chest x-rays, blood work are negative but the doctor reported he heard "wheezing" sounds and prescribed an inhaler.  I've been taking over the counter  prilosec for about two weeks and using an inhaler but I'm still feeling the same way.

Unfortunately, my doctor can't figure out my symptoms, what kind of specialist is recommended?

Any feedback would be appreciated.

same thing happened to me, my family physician said to goto the gastero...

btw... did you drink an energy drink? before that 3 weeks?  

i think this certain drink tore our esophagus and stomach lining which lead to our chest pains/soreness and belching.
