Q: Is acid reflux a symptom of coeliac disease?
I have had really bad acid reflux for the past about 6 months, after a bout of taking a lot of pain killers and anti inflammatorys. I also have pernicious anemia and I was just curious to know if the two were related and if acid reflux could be a symptom of coeliac disease?

A: Acid reflux is not a symptom of coeliac disease and if your PA is antibody positive it has no relationship to your reflux either.

Q: What are all of the symptoms of acid reflux disease?
Preferrably people who have acid reflux only please.

A: Heartburn more than 2 times per week and very severe, worse at nighttime, isn’t helped much by OTC heartburn meds, and often accompanied by bad tastes in your mouth and sometimes even burping.

Once in a while you might have an “episode” I don’t know how else to name it. Your heart beats faster, your chest hurts, your palms get sweaty, and you feel like you’re gonna have a heart attack, but it’s actually acid reflux.

Q: What are the symptoms of gastroesophageal reflux disease?
My stomach always hurts! It’s always full of gas. I don’t know how did this come to be because I never skipped meals. I always burp and fart. Sometimes, I am also experiencing chest pain. I was rarely experiencing heartburn before, but it stopped. My appetite also increased.

Could this be GERD or a more serious illness? What should I do?

A: Visit your doctor. Acid-reflux disease produces heartburn, nausea, regurgitation, and yes, even chest pains. Often the related chest pains can mimic the symptoms of angina. Sounds like this could easily be your problem and there is no need to suffer. There are several meds such as, Nexium that are very effective and if left untreated Gerd can cause further damage to the esophagus and more serious complications and disease.

It isn’t just a question of proper diet, that is to follow. Right now, you need the appropriate medication to help heal the damage that is already present in the stomach and esophagus. See your doctor.

Q: What are the symptoms of acid reflux disease?
How can you reduce the symptoms?

A: have apple or pineapple juice. thy sort your stomach out straight away. or black grapes before bed time and have warm water after it. constipation can cause i t, eating too fast can cause it too or just your metablism can do it. stress causes it. all sorts can bring it on. spicy food too etc. for some ppl milk works, for others, it makes it worse. depends which one of them u are.

Q: How to tell if you have acid reflux disease?
I’m a firm believer that the world is over-prescribed. I think that pharmaceutical companies just want to give you a pill for everything under the sun. So with that in mind I never thought I would get acid reflux disease. I always thought that I could just live with general acid reflux, because so many people have in the past and they got along just fine.
So my question is: how can you tell if you have acid reflux? What are the symptoms and if I have it, how can I reduce it without medication.

Thanks in advance.

A: You need to see a doc if you think you have it for a confirmed diagnosis and a cause. You may have a hiatal hernia causing it but you would never know if you don’t see a doc. GERD is not something you can not treat as left unteated it can lead to esophogeal erosion which is serious. My dad never realized he had GERD and now has esophogeal erosion. See your doc if you think you have it.

Q: Are there over the counter medications that can be used to treat acid reflux disease?
The reason I am asking is because my son seems to be having a few symptoms related to acid reflux disease and I was wondering if there are some over the counter medications that are available to treat this?

A: your son? younger people rarely have this problem
it could be a symptom of disease or ulcer
young people do get ulcers
how much junk and soda does he consume
soda has acid as well as sugar in it
it could also be stress
do not give him OTC medications take him to the doctor yo find out what is wrong first

Q: Acid Reflux Disease symptoms?
OK, so for about 3 weeks now I’ve been getting a very tight throat/closing throat sensation… Its absolutely horrible, and it feels like its cutting off my breathing. I get palpitations along with it, probably because i have severe anxiety, and this issue causes panic!!! I also get heartburn every 2 days or so, doesnt last very long. With that, ive been vomiting for the past 3 days, and there was a tiny amount of bright red blood 1 time…. Ive also had diarreah for the past 4 days! =[ Im looking up stuff online, and it seems like GERD... what do u guys think? Did any of u have similar symptoms? Ive been 2 the stupid doctors around where i lived, and all they say is "ur throat is dry" but believe me, this is DEFINITELY more serious than that! So today when i go, i WILL make sure something gets done!...

A: Hi I am Brandon

I have Acid Reflux and my dr was really good. My symptoms are:
> Horrible taste in my mouth especially in the morning
> Croaky voice in the morning (that may be a guy thing)
> Severe like crippling stomach craps now and then

Also some people choke really easy or sore throat.

Im only 17 so I dont know but the blood and diahorrea sounds a bit worrying so if the dr says no try the hospital.

And good luck

I am taking 2 different types of pill which help reduce the taste and pain

Q: How does someone die of Acid Reflux disease?
And acquaintence of mine claims that someone he knew died of complications related to Acid Reflux disease? It seems absurd to me. How is this possible? Even if it is, wouldn't the symptoms before actual death be so severe that the person would seek out an emergency room, before the disease became lethal???

A: Several possibilities arise. With acid reflux, it is possible to aspirate stomach contents into the lungs and develop pneumonia. In a severe case, you could actually suffocate.

Over time, the acid from the stomach can erode the esophagus. Eventually there could be a massive bleed out.

Acid reflux is nothing to mess with. Unfortunately, a lot of people just think they have bad indigestion and grab a tums. If you have bad heartburn on a regular basis, see a doctor.

Q: What are some signs/symptoms of Acid Reflux Disease?
I have awful heartburn at random times during the day, prominent when I run or exercise. painful stinging in back of throat.

A: Usually for acid reflux your body makes alot of acid, and you may feel kinda sick in the morning from this buildup. If you feel stinging in the back of your throat it could be from the acid coming from your stomach, it happens when the muscle in your esophagus does not close all the way thus letting acid come up, especially if you are laying down which can become serious since it can burn your lining of your throat inside. It would be a good idea to see a doctor because if it is acid reflux he can give you some medications. Good luck

Q: What are the symptoms of Acid Reflux Disease (GERD)????

A: I've had it for several years. Symptoms vary with the individual. Mine mimicked those of a heart attack at first. Chest pain, pain in right arm, sudden, profuse sweating, light-headedness. I drove myself to the hospital, was kept overnight for observation, passed a stress test with no problems, nothing else was found. That's when acid reflux was diagnosed. Sometimes it's mere heartburn, but there are times, especially in the morning, when I suddenly feel lousy, tightness in my chest, I begin to sweat, but I don't panic anymore because I know that in a few minutes, I'll burp a couple of times and get rid of the gas that causes the symptoms, and then I feel just fine.

Zantac works pretty well but I take it only when I get the symptoms in the evening, before bed.

Q: Is stomach ulcer different from acid reflux disease?
Are those two different diseases? Are they related? what are they and if they are different, what symptom makes them different?

Just trying to figure something out. A bit confused about this plz help>

A: Yes they are different. I have acid reflux disease..

Acid reflux has more to do with your esophagus. It's just acid backing up from your stomach. You can get heartburn and indigestion. I've had to deal with it so much that i've gotten my esophagus stretched because of scar tissue build up.. it gets to the point where I can't swallow any food and hardly any liquid.

A stomach ulcer is loss of the gastric lining in your stomach. Some people think they get heartburn or indigestion from it but its your stomach that's burning. Usually they can bleed and you have to get part of the stomach removed to get rid of it.

Q: can I have acid reflux disease if I don't have heartburn?
I have sporadic sore throat and coughing, chest pains, nausea, and hoarseness. Usually the symptoms occur seperately or in pairs. Could I have acid reflux disease?

A: Acid reflex disease can be very serious. It can cause alot of problems including gastrointestinal bleeds and aspiration pneumonia. I sounds like that is what you might have. BUT, see your doctor first. Don't treat your self. OTC medications can have serious side effect when mixed with other medications. Just because it is OTC does not mean it is always safe to take. You may had H pylori of another problem that needs to be treated.

Q: HELP! I need to write a brief SOAP note. 30 year old female showing symptoms of acid reflux disease?
I need to use acronyms and abbreviations associated with medical terminology. The SOAP note is about a 30 year old female exhibiting signs of acid reflux disease. In addition, are there any good websites that have acronyms and abbreviaitons associated with medical terminology? PLEASE HELP! This is really confusing for me. I understand some acromyns and abbreviations but some have different meanings. Thank you!

A: Hi,

I use this one all the times http://www.all-acronyms.com/?g=7

Good luck.

Q: Would this be from a stomach virus or my Acid Reflux disease?
My a.r.d has been actin up lately but since yesterday when i eat my stomach hurts really bad afterwards. I ate some special k crackers and it didnt hurt, but if i eat like a regular meal it hurts.

ive been diet and exercising for nearly a month now if that has anything to do with it. I dont have a fever or other symptoms, and it feels like a cramping pain not nauseated. Im male 19 years old. Thanks
Wrong category sry.

A: I am not a doctor. But just from what I have learned, first of all, you should not have ARD at age 19. Older people [>40] get it because a flap on the top of our stomach ceases to be fully able to keep the stomach acid from floating back up into our eustachian tubes when we lie down after eating. Did a doc diagnose this , or you? What do you take for it? Pepcid, or Nexium, Rolaids, etc. ???

How are your bowel movements.? Constipation causes gut pain, usually lower than the stomach, but none of us quite sure by feel where our stomachs are located, are we?

Your stomach might be shrinking from your dieting and exercising, which is what you want, isn’t it? If you just eat smaller meals, maybe 4x/day instead of 3, is it better?

My point is that at age 19, you are well within Mother Nature’s “warranty period”, and so, highly unlikely to have any serious disease, although it can happen. Or you might be doing some belly /abdominal exercise improperly, like sit ups, causing slight hernia or muscle tear ? (again, not very likely) But in that event, eating should not bring on the symptoms.

I’d wait a few days unless the pain is really bad, before seeing a doc.

Q: Anyone have bad acid reflux disease?
I believe I have acid reflux…I have a burning type sensation alot on my chest, sometimes I feel acidy type fluid in my mouth and I have small bumps on the back of my tongue that I looked up online and are related to acid reflux. Does anyone else have these symptoms, and should I go to the doctor or is there over the counter acid reflux medicine that I can take?

A: Yes it is an awful feeling, you need to get a prescription to reduce it.
