Hello.
Thank you for asking at HCM.
I went through your history.
I would like to ask a few more question here like - What is your weight (Are you
overweight)? Do you have any nose symptoms like
nasal obstruction, running nose, etc? Do you have any difficulty in swallowing foods or liquids? Do you have regurgitation of food, especially at evening or after spicy meals?
However, from your history, I would think first of gastroesopahgeal refulx disease or
obstructive sleep apnea. I would not think of allergy/
asthma at present.
I would like to make following suggestions:
1. Were I treating you, I would prescribe antacids like
omeprazole or
pantoprazole half-an-hour before meals for at least 2 weeks.
2. Please avoid hot, spice meals. Please avoid
smoking, alcohol and caffeinated beverages.
3. Please do not eat to full stomach at dinner. Please do not go to bed immediately after dinner. It would be great if you can go for a brief, relaxing walk after dinner.
4. Weight reduction (if you are overweight) will help.
5. Sleeping in left lateral position or sleeping with head-end of bed elevated also may help.
However, if above measures do not help, I would suggest you to consult a physician who will suggest you further investigations after detailed inquiry and examination.
Hope this will be helpful to you.
Wish you the best of the health.
Should you have any query, please feel free to ask at HCM.
Thank you & Regards.
