Do you have a tip, information or have had a similar experience? Guavie says....

"My 7 year old son was just diagnosed w/ GERD after an Endoscopy showed he had an inflamed esophagus. He has the gagging, heartburn, etc. that's normal for GERD, but he also says he feels like he can't breathe well sometimes. He's not really having a HARD time breathing 'cause he's not upset or whatever - just annoyed. He said it feels like a lump is in the way. There is no lump so I assume it's the Globus Sensation I've read about. Have any of you, or your children, had this feeling of not being able to breathe well do to GERD?"

If you would like to respond to Guavie, you can go to her topic and post. Or you can start your own discussion.
