GERD

by Gfoss100, Sep 02, 2008 09:31AM
I went to my ENT for shortness of breath problem and he said SOB was because of GERD.  Even though I have to pain from GERD, he says that GERD can manifest itself in a painless way.  He he correct that GERD can be painless?  Also, can GERD cause SOB for long periods of time?  (Often weeks).  He also said stress can incrase SOB in relation to GERD.  
Thank you!

I don't know if I have GERD--but I do know I've been suffering from shortness of breath and really intense heartburn.  I thought my shortness of  breath was from my Emphysema and the heartburn was from starting to drink v-8's in the morning.  How does a person know whether or not they have gerd?
