could it be GERD? longer but please read?about a month ago, I went in to the doctor because i had shortness of breath for 2 weeks before that. Now after a month of various tests and treatments (asthma rescue inhaler, controller medicines, allergy medinces, steroid inhaler, and anxiety meds), i still have a hard time getting a deep breath.
im going back on Friday and so i was doing some pre-appointment researching. could my difficulty breathing and tightness in the chest be GERD?
I am a constant overeater and on top of that, tend to eat spicy foods. so eating to the point of feeling sick and then regugitating some of it is not uncommon (yeah i know gross).
aftering taking pepto, i felt a little better. not GREAT but slightly. what do you think?

Shortness of Breath (SOB) is not a typical symptom of GERD, but rather an atypical. That means its not usually a symptom associated with GERD, but it's not unheard of.
More sever cases of GERD can be associated with SOB, but should only effect your breathing 1-2 hours after eating at most. What happens is the stomach isn't moving the food into the intestines as fast as it should and that increase the pressure on the sphincter between the esophagus and the stomach (LES) and that pressure can push on the diaphragm and the lungs a little bit.
Usually this symptom of GERD just worsens an already existing condition os asthma though.
If you think you have GERD you can try taking pepcid OR prilosec for 2 weeks and see if that resolves the breathing issue.
