Anxienty

Good morn8ng has anyone experiance acid reflux / gerd after having to deal with anxienty

[duchess1226]

Thats what began my anxiety...or maybe it just happens all together. I was told that some of my chest pain/chest discomfort was GERD and that anxiety can trigger GERD and GERD can trigger anxiety...terrible, vicious cycle! I watch what I eat, chew gum to help deal with both, and try to deal one day at a time. I wish you all the best.

I had gerd baaaaaaaaaaaaad!!!!! Acid the lot! Pain after everything I ate! Life was hell .. petrified to eat anythin incase I got the pain! But once I controlled the anxiety and it didn't control me the gerd got better and better each day until I cud eat what I wanted with hardly any acid! xx

I had pain everywhere!

Terrible in my chest and my stomach felt like I had a heavy brick in there! I still get this weird sensation in my throat now, like I can't get my breath, a rushing feeling up the Bk of my throat! Hard to explain but it's jus not nice! It feels like it comes from my stomach but who knows... I jus wish all these stupid symptoms would do one!!!!!! Xxx

When your stomach doesn't have enough acid the valve that keeps food in your stomach does not close tight. This allows food and acid to flow back up into your esophagus and throat. Also a normal amount of stomach acid kills germs in your stomach - germs that cause ulcers. The worst thing you can do is to take antacids. Try putting a teaspoon of natural vinegar in a cup of water and drink this once or twice a day. Brags vinegar is a good brand. Do a google search for reflux and vinegar, if you want to read more on this from a professional source. I am not a doctor.
