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?

View allI have this feeling like there's gas trapped in my throat. When I drink water, I burp for a second, but then nothing changes, and the gas is still stuck there. It's really uncomfortable, and I can't sleep or even lie down for long periods because of it. What can I do to get some relief?
It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of acid reflux or GERD. I recommend trying over-the-counter antacids like Mucaine Gel or Gelusil Syrup to help relieve the gas and discomfort in your throat. You can take 1-2 tablets as needed, up to several times a day. Additionally, you can try taking an over-the-counter medication like omeprazole (Omez) once a day before breakfast to help reduce stomach acid production and alleviate your symptoms. Make sure to avoid lying down immediately after eating and try to elevate your head while sleeping to help prevent acid reflux. If your symptoms persist, it's important to consult with a gastroenterologist for further evaluation and management.

I've had GERD for about a year now and every time I take medicine or antacids, I end up with loose motions. Is this normal? Should I consider surgery as an option or are there other ways to manage this?

I'm really worried because I've been dealing with loose motion for the past couple of days. I took Metroquin this morning and again tonight, but it doesn't seem to be helping at all. Is there anything else I should try, or do I need to wait longer for it to work? Also, is there something specific in my diet that I should be avoiding or eating to help with this?
Metroquin is a combination of Metronidazole and Diloxanide. Since the issue persists, I recommend adding a probiotic to help restore the balance of good bacteria in your gut. You can try taking Enterogermina capsule once a day for 3-5 days. Additionally, make sure to stay hydrated by drinking plenty of fluids and consider a light diet.
