GERD symptoms?

Can anyone who has/had GERD give me all the symptoms you have ever felt?

Please? I really need to know.

I hope that what I am about to type will aid you in both the answer to this question and also many more.

I am not a doctor, so either way you will want to talk to them, but this is what I have to say as a long time sufferer of Acid Reflux (G.E.R.D.)!

Three part answer information, what not to do, and what to do!

INFORMATION!!!!!!
I have a very severe case of Acid Reflux (G.E.R.D.). I have had to go to the hospital for some of the heartburn that I have had because the pain can become overwhelming or your breathing can be effected. It can be caused by Smoking, Drinking Beverages with caffeine (My case), Drinking Beverages with Alcohol, or can be Hereditary

The good thing about G.E.R.D. is that it can be a temporary thing and can be cured. It is never a permit thing even if you end up with it for the rest of your life it has the ability to be cured.

G.E.R.D. is caused by too much acid being created in your stomach. This can lead to or cause ulcers, esophagus damage, heartburn and/or damage in the mouth. Other symptoms that can be found in a few cases are dizziness, tingling in limbs, numbness of Limbs, Chest/Back pain focused on the left side (in most cases), and shortness/difficulty breathing.

WHAT NOT TO DO!!!!!!!!
In most cases, stress is a factor to the reflux if you watch what you eat and reduce some of the stress it will help. If you watch what you eat for about a week you should find relief, if you do not then that is when you definitely what to listen to the doctor. Things to watch for are as follows:

Fatty Foods
Citrus Foods
Foods That Contain Grease
Fried Foods
Chocolate (including any Coco)
Caffeine
Smoking
Alcohol
Tomato Based Products
Lactose
Onions

WHAT TO DO!!!!
The two foods that I recommend is Black strap Molasses and Raw honey. The apple is better for night time reflux while these will work for just about all of it. What you will do is take about a tsp. of whatever one you chose. Molasses being the better because of strength and nutrition, but must be use to the taste. What the substance will do is stick to the sides of the esophagus and do two things, one is heal and the other is protect.
On the healing end, both substances have a healing property in them, and as they sit on the walls of the esophagus they will heal it. This is also helpful if you have a sore throat in the morning from refluxing.
On the protection end, both substances are high in sugar and when acid that is refluxed comes up to that the sugar will neutralize it and it will not longer be a problem at that point.

I would also look to putting Cinnamon and Ginger in you diet, they have been know to help with digestion and will help you reduce the amount of acid needed to brake down food, therefore causing you to reflux less.This is a bit more then you wanted, but I figured that you may want to know it anyways.

Constant heartburn in between meals.

Reflux of stomache acid at night.

Well My DR diagnosed me with it a few monthes ago and I have noticed some sypmtoms, I get shortness of breath but that's because I have asthma and GERD affects asthma a lot. As well as heartburn (obviously lol) and fullness in my stomach. My symptoms usually get more intense when I eat, and a lot of times I get chest pain.

My husband is a drug rep for Zegerid which is a prescription drug for Gerd. The symptoms are coughing, a burning sensation in your throat, bitter taste in mouth in the morning and pain in chest. The best thing to do if you suspect you have it is to go to your doctor. There are over the counter remedies, but see your doctor first. Hope that helps.

I have GERD and the symptoms that I have are:
-chest tightness
-trouble breathing because of esophagul spasms
-sour taste in mouth from stomach acid
-heart burn/ chest pain

I get all of these symptoms if I eat foods high in fat or foods with acid.

**Burning sensation in your chest or stomach
**Funky taste in your mouth
**Trouble swallowing
**Pain in your chest (Breastbone area - center of chest)
**Nausea (Sometimes causing you to vomit)
**Difficulty breathing (Sometimes also expeirence a cough)

I have heard a bunch of home remedies and they may or may not work for some but your best bet would be to contact your doctor as the prescription medication works best. Also, if you do have it - don't eat close to bedtime as you will experience it worse laying down and eat regular meals...don't go too long in between as you will experience it then as well!
