I'm having a really hard time breathing because of this gas and my chest feels really heavy. I'm pretty sure it's because I haven't been eating and sleeping well, and now I've got this terrible gastric problem. Can you help me figure out how to ease this?

I'm 43 and have been dealing with a really bad smell coming from my throat for about a week now. It's so awful and it's even making my throat feel irritated. I haven't noticed any respiratory issues, but I was recently diagnosed with GERD. I'm really concerned about this foul smell and not sure what steps to take next. Can you help me understand what's going on and suggest what I should do?

-The foul smell you're experiencing could be related to your GERD, as acid reflux can sometimes cause bad breath and throat irritation. It might help to follow your doctor's advice on managing GERD, like adjusting your diet and possibly using medications.
