I am very tired and worn out...My doctors say I have a hiatal hernia and that is the reason for all my stomach pain. I had the Nessian Flundaplication, which is probably spelled wrong.....But, my throat feels like its closing off, and I feel like I am dying of thirst, etc. Why, does my stomach constantly hurt ? I have to get up in the middle of the night and walk and it feels like I am constantly gulping. If I am asleep, I awake and find myself gulping for air and then the anxiety kicks in. This has been going on since April 9, 2008, and have been to the ER at least 10 times. I feel like there is mucus in the back my throat and I gulp and gulp and gulp. I have a little sinus infection, but dont understand the constant feeling of being full and the gulping....I am tired and cant live like this every day...what can I do
