Hello,
I am new to these boards. I been reading for the last few weeks. I also was Dx with GERD last year. I was on Nexium but after awhile I started having side effects from it. I stopped using Nexium and use Gaviscon when needed.
Lately I been having a fluttering feeling in my stomach. Last week I actually went to the ER turned out to be having a Panic attack. This year this GERD has really risen my anxiety level. While I was hooked up to the heart monitor, I noticed that every time my stomach fluttered, a PVC would register on the monitor. I only notice these fluttering while I am relaxing watching TV or in bed. I thought PVC's were felt in chest.
I also been suffering from a sinus infection. Went to a ENT, looked and said everything was clear gave me Nasonex and sent me on my way. Anyone with GERD have problems with their sinuses? It is very annoying to walk around with pressure in my head.
