Suggest Treatment For Breathing Difficulty While Having GERD
I have had GERD for a little over 2 weeks which started at the end of a antibiotic course. I am not asthmatic but now have shortness of breathe when I inhale only and my throat hurts. I did have swollen glands and could not talk but those symptoms seem to have stopped. I was on pepcid and still have SOB. Will my breathing ever be normal again? Looking forward to your response.
