I was just diagnosed with gastroesophageal reflux disease last week and I'm dealing with this burning pain on the left side of my back around the breastbone and I'm also having shortness of breath. The doctor said it's GERD and I'm on medication, which is helping, but I'm still facing this breathing issue. Every 10 minutes or so, I feel like I need to take a deep breath or else there's this pressure and tightness in my chest. My blood tests came back normal with an HB of 13. Why do I feel like taking a deep breath every 10 minutes? Could you suggest any breathing exercises or regular exercises that might help with this?

I'm worried about my mom. This morning, she noticed her stool was black, and I can't help but be concerned. She's been going to the bathroom a lotlike 34 timesbut there's no diarrhea or pain. Should I be worried about this? Plus, the last month has been really tough for her since she hasn't been eating or sleeping well after my uncle died. Does this sound normal, or should we be looking into what's going on with her? What could be the reason for the black stool?
it may be due to dehydration if still pending sists consult physicisn and stool culture sample
