      sweetie what meds have you taken...the stomach meds would not have done that, but other meds like pains meds...things with ansaid and asprin would contribute to that...yes I have the problems like you...I am at the point a couple of days ago...I was eatting toast and i felt it all the way down the esophagus...it burned and then the chest got so tight...I got scared..I got up and had to walk around and held my chest and prayed it would go away...at the point you are at it doesnt get any better...I tried changing my diet...and I quit smoking... I am not any better worse...I go to bed at night and some times while sleeping the acid starts to come up and makes me choke and wakes me up...I can feel the burning...it is also...i have my side of the bed elevated....it doesnt get better....at this point...part of my stomach is in the diaphram...which causes breathing problems and anxiety...it part of your stomach in the diaphram...I have a sliding and a paraesophagal hiatal...you can be at risk of having your stomach strangulated...that is not good...if the dr says you are at risk then you have to have the surgery...hugs...I am here for you if you need to talk or need support....
