I have been having bad anxiety/panic attacks and acid reflux at the same time. They seem to have started at approximately the same time as well. Does one cause the other? How can I treat this?

For 3 or 4 days now I’ve had this pain in the left side of my chest. I’m 28 yrs old and from what I understand you feel numbness in your arm if it’s a heart attack but I’ve felt none. The pain comes and goes but it usually comes when I’m up and walking or sitting in a seat but when I’m on my back, lying down, it goes away. At times it can hurt a lot more. Is this acid reflux or something worse?

I feel that the muscles (sphincter) are becoming not as elastic as to hold in the acid, and it leaks into the throat.

I have been getting periodic intense chest pains in what feels like the esophogas area. It feels like when you swallow a chip whole and it pokes you from the inside. But it’s not like bile rising or anything. I’m also a little burpy. Is this acid reflux or heartburn? (what’s the difference?) What can I do to treat it?

I developed acid reflux for the first time immediately following arthroscopic shoulder surgery. Could there be a connection, or is it just a coincidence?

I think my boxer might have acid reflux. It seems like when she burps stuff comes up to the back of her throat. She throws up once in awhile, but it’s just wet, not food…and not enough to dehydrate her. I read that terriers sometimes have this problem and that their owners give them pepcid and other antacids made for humans. I’m nervous to try those. Is there anything else I can do?

I’ve always had trouble with acid reflux and have vomited acid while i slept, but lately i have awakened and ran to the bathroom and basically coughed what i believe is acid out. i cough because my throat is burning. i also have a very weird taste in my mouth for about 15-30 min after i’m finished coughing or vomiting. this has happened about 3-5 times in the last couple months, but 2 times in the past week. does this sound like regular acid/bile or maybe an ulcer or something?

I was told at the health shop it was ok to take the probiotic Quest acidophilus plus, even though I am taking an acid reflux prescription, started them yesterday, taking them after food, having a little acid reflux problem this morning, I did try a none caffine herbal tea last night, which I never had before, so not to sure what caused it but was wondering if anyone has had side effects, from taking probiotics and acid reflux prescription

I think it was the summer of last year, and I was drinking so much soda. Like 1-2 bottles a day for almost 2-3 months or longer. And a few months later, I started feeling like I wanted to throw up after I ate, especially at night. It went away after I stopped drinking soda, but about a year later, it’s back. Do I have acid reflux? Thanks, 10 points to the best answer.
I’m only 13.
Actually, I just turned 14.

I noticed this gaining momentum with Kevin Trudeau and his assertion that acid reflux or gastro-esophageal reflux is caused by too little acid.

I’m wondering why it is so popular to believe a guy with no medical background and no understanding of the pathophysiology. Why doesn’t months and years of real research by scientists prevail over testimonials and flawed reasoning.
