Suggest Treatment For Pressure In Chest,dizziness And Congestion
I have pressure in my chest, feel slightly dizzy and have congestion. Periodically the pressure from my chest goes to my stomach and feels as though it is a build up of gas. I have been to my doctor and he says I have severe allergies and recommends I take Zyrtec, benedryl, Flonase and Advil as needed to help. It works periodically but I don t know if this is accurate or effective treatment. I would appreciate your thoughts?

Suggested Zyrtec, Benedryl, Flonase and Advil due to supposed allergies by your Doctor. This works periodically and wants to know whether accurate or effective treatment. As per the history you have provided and the results you have gotten, the treatment looks accurate. Please continue on. You may need adjustment of the dosages. The gas problem feeling can be related to the GERD and a course of PPI and Domperidone should help you the most. Get an Upper GI Endoscopy if required .
