Hello

It is quiet common but I think you would be having a lot more pain and problems than you are having even though I have not had one but I do suffer with dreadful indigestion but for me it is more an acid thing no doubt anxiety related which will maybe be what you are getting

You have done the right thing not to look on Google and don't be tempted , the best person to ask would be your own Doctor if you have not already and trust what they tell you they know best

Take Care x

Hi. I never had this myself, but my partner say that there are no symptoms for most people. But for those who do, heartburn is a common link and you may or may not have GERD as well as the hernia. You might feel nausea, have an acidic taste in your mouth and have difficulty in swallowing as well as possible chest and/or abdominal pain. It is also more common in women apparently. Ir will be diagnosed by xray or an endoscopy procedure. Treatment will include things like life-style changes interms of what you eat and drink for example, and some types of medication like omeprazole. As I say, most people who have this have no clear symptoms, and only get diagnosed as a result of investigations for something like GERD.
