Burping

[Tony95]

I am not sure if my burping is linked to my anxiety or linked to reflux. Consently worried if it could be a more serious systopm but when to speak to doctors every time "It an anxiety systopm" give the look of susprise.

Hey Tony 95, I too suffer from anxiety and acid reflux and sometimes the symptoms of reflux are horrible it sends me in to anxiety and panic mode, especially when it feels as if something is stuck in my throat, I went to an ENT because I was so worried and they looked in my throat with the camera and said it's just part of reflux, so is burping, indigestion, hoarseness, feeling of a lump in the throat. So it could be just reflux for you but once again it could be anxiety. everyone is different and won't experience the same symptom. I hope all goes well

I have an appointment with my doctor on tuesday next week and going ask if I can have camra down my throat. It's driving me crazy. I had this for the last 2 weeks but I am also on PPI meds which also states it is a side effect.

I think once you go to the doctor and they exam you and find that there's nothing wrong then you'll feel much better and it will ease your mind a lot, Trust me I've been there and know exactly how you feel. Just try not to worry to much..

Hi. I did suffer terribly with this. I had a camera and nothing was found. Doc says i gulp air at night and so wake up burpy and very uncomfortable. What i do first thing in the morning is 2 mins of breathing. I breathe in thru my nose for a count of 9 then out thru my mouth for 11 counts. It's hard to do at first but now I can do it quite easily. It has made a difference to my anxiety in general. Maybe worth a try?

I did same, had a camera and there wa nothing, I was convinced I had a tumour or something. I got horribly chest pains with it. All due to reflux. If you sit in silence and just listen you'll hear it bubbling up very quietly and can confirm it's acid
