Can anyone tell me what is happening here? Lots of issues

Hi,

These are my current symptoms.

-Pins and needles/burning sensation in arms/legs/back/chest MOSTLY when lying down making it VERY difficult to sleep
-Sensation of difficulty swallowing and gullet feels tight too
-Stomach constantly making churning noises
-Occasional loose stools
-Some food seems to be undigested in stool
-White tongue
-Sometimes burp up liquid after consuming (but no traditional heartburn sensation)
-Felt very bloated 1 week ago, but now bloating not as severe

I have had an endoscopy which showed nothing of significance other than a slightly narrow gullet. I'm not sure if my doctor biopsied for H Pylori either.

If anybody has any thoughts/suggestions on what is going on, I would really appreciate your information.

Thanks

Hello~Most of your symptoms point to a hiatal hernia which is causing GERD. Have you been checked for this? As to the pins and needles sensation, that would appear to be due to pinched nerves. I would suggest seeing a chiropractor for the pins and needles, and possibly even mention the gastric issues, I have the burning in my throat from acid reflux, he fixes mine by a simple adjustment, he also helps with my other issues related to nerve impingement.

Thanks for your reply Lassie. I'm not sure. My endoscopy report did not mention a hernia and the pins and needles started about the same time as all the other symptoms so I can't really figure out whats happening.

Sorry forgot to mention these symptoms

-previously felt very nauseous but the nausea felt like it was coming from the throat area rather than the stomach. This has mostly subsided now also.

-When all of these symptoms first started, I felt fatigued and my back muscles felt particularly tired and it was extremely uncomfortable to even sit down. This has also subsided.
