I have acid reflux and a hietal hernia.  I was wondering if any of those diseases could cause bouts of cardiac bradycardia.  I need some help with this.

Thanks Cal for your response.  So it CAN happen by that phenomenon, even if rare, and only show in infants.  See unlike probably alot of people I have focus  (maybe to much) on changes in the way I feel.  That's why I asked that, because most times when this happens I have trouble with my stomach.  I thought it might be  the bradycardia making my stomach acidic, but I ALWAYS feel the acid and then notice the drop in hearty rate.  I could actually feel the heat from acid in my throat.  If you know anyone that has experienced these symptoms could you please let me know.  I am going nutz trying to figure this out.

Thanks again,

I've not heard of it happening in adults, but I know that it does happen in infants. They can have sudden severe instances of bradycardia due to feeding and acid reflux. I think most docs would say it couldn't happen, but?
